Behr

Silky White

PPU7-12

Silky White by Behr is a warm white with light beige undertones and an LRV of 92.2, placing it among the higher-reflectance off-whites. It reads as a soft, slightly creamy white rather than a cool white, making it practical for ceilings, trim, and full-room applications where a warm but bright appearance is needed. The beige influence is mild and avoids shifting into yellow under standard lighting.

It pairs with Behr Swiss Coffee and Behr Creamy Mushroom in layered neutral schemes, while Behr Blue Metal offers muted navy contrast and Behr Aged Beige adds warmth.

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.
