What color is Benjamin Moore Soft White?
Benjamin Moore Soft White 2170-70 is a very pale, warm off-white with a noticeable creamy blush drawn from its soft peach-beige cast. Its high lightness keeps it close to white, while the gentle warmth prevents it from feeling stark or blue. In daylight, this shade can read as a clean ivory; under warm lamps, its rosy cream undertone becomes more apparent. It suits bedrooms, nurseries, living rooms, and low-contrast kitchens where a bright white would feel too sharp. Pair Soft White with natural oak, warm brass, terracotta, muted sage, or deeper caramel-brown accents for a grounded palette.

LRV of Soft White
Soft White has an LRV of 83.34% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all 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 83.34%, 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.
