What color is Benjamin Moore Indian White?
Benjamin Moore Indian White OC-88 is a pale, warm off-white with a soft beige-cream cast rather than a crisp white appearance. Its light value keeps walls open and bright, while the muted warmth gives it more body than a stark neutral. In daylight, it can read as a gentle creamy white; under warm lamps, its beige undertone becomes more noticeable. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and kitchen walls where a relaxed, low-contrast backdrop is wanted. Pair Indian White with natural oak, linen upholstery, terracotta accents, or deeper brown and charcoal details for definition.

What are Benjamin Moore Indian White undertones?
Indian White is a near-white, very muted creamy off-white. The HEX sample has a subtle yellow-orange bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear yellow-orange. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.

LRV of Indian White
Indian White has an LRV of 75.44% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 75.44%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
