Behr

Palais White

GR-W15

Palais White by Behr is a warm white with faint cream undertones, reading as nearly neutral with a slight yellow-warm lean. Its LRV of 94.1 places it among the highest-reflectance whites, making it effective for maximizing light and especially useful in north-facing or low-light spaces. The warm cast is subtle enough to avoid reading as yellow but is perceptible next to cooler whites.

It is commonly used for walls, ceilings, and trim. Palais White coordinates with Behr Swiss Coffee and Almond Wisp for a layered warm palette, while Behr Admiralty and Graphic Charcoal provide contrasting accents.

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.
