Behr

Nano White

HDC-MD-06

Behr Nano White is a soft white with a very faint warm, beige-leaning undertone. Its LRV of 94.1 places it among the highest-reflectance options in the Behr lineup, making it suitable for ceilings, trim, full-room walls, and any application where maximum brightness is needed. The slight warmth prevents it from appearing clinical under artificial lighting.

It works as a trim or wall color alongside Behr Swiss Coffee, Navajo White for a tonal warm pairing, Morning Zen as a soft accent, Lunar Surface for a gray contrast, and Intellectual for a darker complement.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
