Benjamin Moore White Dove / PM-19 / OC-17

White Dove in a living room is that "soft, expensive-looking" white that makes everything else feel more intentional. It's perfect if you have warm details—stone fireplaces, wood floors, leather sofas, or brass/black lighting - because it doesn’t fight them. In these rooms, you can see how it keeps the space airy, but still cozy when the sun hits the walls. If your trim is bright white, White Dove still works - it just reads a touch creamier next to it.

Tip: test it on a few walls first—north light makes it look cooler, while afternoon light brings out the warmth.

White Dove is that bathroom wall color when you want it to feel bright, but not icy. In these bathrooms, it plays so nicely with warm wood vanities, brass sconces, and soft stone/tile - everything looks a little more finished without trying hard. It's also super forgiving with white subway tile, because it doesn't go stark next to it. If your bathroom gets low natural light, White Dove keeps things creamy and calm instead of turning gray.

Tip: pair it with warm metals (brass/aged gold) and a light oak or walnut vanity for an instant spa vibe.

White Dove on an exterior is the "clean but not blinding" white—more soft and classic than stark. It looks especially good on brick and crisp trim, because it keeps the house bright while still feeling warm. If you want that modern-farmhouse vibe, pair it with black or deep charcoal garage doors, plus black windows for contrast (like in these photos). It also plays nicely with light gray shutters and natural landscaping - boxwoods, mulch, simple planters, all of it.
