Benjamin Moore

Lime White

CW-95

Lime White (2015-70) is a warm off-white with subtle yellow and green undertones that reference aged lime putty or natural plaster. At an LRV of 75.37, it reflects a good amount of light but reads distinctly warmer and softer than a pure white. The green note is very restrained and mostly surfaces in side-by-side comparisons with cooler whites.

It pairs closely with White Dove and Swiss Coffee, which share its warm base. Chelsea Gray or Hale Navy provide clean contrast, and it complements soft greens and muted yellows without competing for attention.

Lime White 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.

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.
