What color is Dulux York White?
Dulux York White 30YY 72/097 is a light, softly warmed off-white with a muted beige-cream cast. Its low saturation keeps it gentle rather than yellow, while the subtle warmth prevents it from reading stark against white trim. In strong daylight, York White can appear clean and lightly creamy; under cooler or dimmer light, its beige undertone becomes more noticeable. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and kitchen walls where a pale neutral is wanted without the sharpness of pure white. Pair it with natural oak, linen, warm grey, clay-toned ceramics, or deeper brown accents for a grounded, layered look.
LRV of York White
York White has an LRV of 72% 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 72%, 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.
