Benjamin Moore

Counting Stars

282

Counting Stars by Benjamin Moore is a faint, pale yellow with soft warm undertones that read close to cream in most lighting conditions. It has an LRV of 83.43, which means it reflects a significant amount of light and can make smaller rooms feel more open. The yellow is restrained enough to function as a near-neutral on walls and ceilings.

It works well in kitchens, hallways, and living rooms where a subtle warmth is needed without strong color presence. For a cohesive scheme, pair it with Benjamin Moore White Dove or Ballet White; for contrast, Hale Navy or Hunter Green provide a grounded counterpoint. Soft Fern is another option for a quieter tonal combination.
