How to choose the perfect white?

Advices

The White and the choice par excellence for most of our indoor environments, indeed, it is often the basis that will allow the selection of the rest of the colors. This is why it is usually chosen first, it will bring a lot of brightness to the different spaces, highlight the shades that will be juxtaposed and give the impression of extending the spaces.

 

It comes in cool, warm and neutral shades to suit your needs, at Benjamin Moore© the Off- White® collection features 152 different whites.

• Warm whites contain a hint of warm colour: yellow, red, pink, beige, etc. For a warm, cozy interior, a real cocoon.
Our most popular warm whites: Simply White OC-117, Cotton Balls OC-122, White Chocolate OC-127, etc.

• Cold whites are whites including a small amount of cold color: blue, green, grey, etc. For a contemporary interior, design and sleek.
Our most popular cold whites: Chantilly Lace OC-65, Ice Mist 0C-67, Decorator’s White OC-149, etc.

• Neutral white, a pure white, in which no color pigment has been added.
By definition: it is neutral andtherefore tends to fade to give way to the colors that are juxtaposed to it.

Many homeowners use both warm and cold colours in the same room.
The dominant color then becomes the one that most influences the atmosphere of the room.

It is very important to take into account that colors vary according to their exposure to light (North, South, East, West), that’s why the use of paint samples is a real plus in order to perceive the different shades of the shades you have selected, throughout the day under artificial and natural light. We recommend the use of our Benjamin Moore© smart paint samples (236 ml).
