Benjamin Moore

Almond Bisque

269 / CC-280

Almond Bisque from Benjamin Moore is a warm ivory with a faint green undertone that keeps it from reading as purely yellow-based. Its LRV of 68.32 places it on the lighter end of the spectrum, where it reflects enough light to open up a room while still providing more warmth and body than a standard white. This makes it a practical choice for living rooms, bedrooms, and transitional spaces.

It pairs well with Benjamin Moore colors such as Edgecomb Gray, Classic Gray, Saybrook Sage, Guilford Green, and Hale Navy.

Almond Bisque in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
