Benjamin Moore

Lancaster White

OC-144 / PM-31

Lancaster White is an off-white with a noticeable flaxen undertone that keeps it from reading as stark or cold. With an LRV of 73.21, it reflects a significant amount of light, making it functional as a high-coverage neutral across large surfaces. The yellow-tan base distinguishes it from cooler whites and gives it a slightly aged, warm cast.

It coordinates well with White Dove and Simply White for layered white schemes, while Kendall Charcoal or Hale Navy supply sharp contrast. Revere Pewter and Manchester Tan work as transitional companions.
