What color is Benjamin Moore Winter Sky?
Benjamin Moore Winter Sky 2163-70 is a very pale, warm off-white with a faint creamy beige cast. Its high lightness keeps rooms bright, while the soft warmth prevents it from reading as stark white. In daylight, Winter Sky can appear lightly sun-washed and nearly neutral; under warm lamps, its gentle peach-beige undertone becomes more noticeable. It suits bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways where a quiet wall color is needed without the sharpness of a cooler white. Pair it with natural oak, linen upholstery, matte black hardware, or muted clay and olive accents for a grounded look.

What are Benjamin Moore Winter Sky undertones?
Winter Sky is a very light, muted off-white with a soft yellow-leaning cast in the supplied digital sample. Its undertone is subtle rather than strongly defined, so it can read close to neutral while still appearing gently warm. Benjamin Moore describes it as having gentle tints of pink and orange; that description fits its warm off-white character without changing its visibly pale, low-saturation main family. Warm artificial light may bring out more of its creamy warmth, while cool daylight can make it appear cleaner and closer to a quiet near-white.

LRV of Winter Sky
Winter Sky has an LRV of 82.34% 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 82.34%, 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.
