Benjamin Moore

Marble White

942 / OC-34

Marble White OC-34 is a soft off-white with muted cream and yellow undertones that give it a slightly aged, parchment-like quality rather than a stark or cool cast. At an LRV of 80.24, it reflects a high amount of light while still registering as distinctly warmer than a true white. The yellow undertone is subtle enough to avoid reading as beige but present enough to soften any clinical feel.

Simply White and Swiss Coffee work as coordinating whites for trim or ceilings, and Kendall Charcoal or Hale Navy provide clean contrast. Saybrook Sage pairs well as a muted accent.

Marble 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.
