What color is Benjamin Moore Marble White?

Benjamin Moore Marble White OC-34 is a pale off-white with a soft cream cast, drawn from its gently yellowed #F0EBD7 color value. It reads warmer than a stark white, but its light depth keeps walls looking clean rather than noticeably beige. In bright daylight, Marble White can appear lightly sun-washed; under warm lamps, its creamy undertone becomes more apparent. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a crisp white might feel too cool. Pair it with natural oak, woven linen, warm gray textiles, or muted olive accents for a grounded palette.

What are Benjamin Moore Marble White undertones?

Marble White is a near-white, very muted cream. The HEX sample has a subtle yellow bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear yellow. 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 Marble White

Marble White has an LRV of 80.24% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 80.24%, 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.
