Benjamin Moore

Intense White

OC-51 / 857

Intense White is an off-white with subtle gray undertones, giving it a slightly cooler cast than pure white. With an LRV of 73.36, it reflects considerable light while maintaining depth through its gray base. This makes it functional for walls, trim, or ceilings in living rooms and bedrooms where a clean but not stark white is needed.

It pairs well with Benjamin Moore's Simply White, Gray Owl, Kendall Charcoal, and Pale Oak for cohesive neutral schemes.
