Benjamin Moore

Niveous

OC-36 / 944

Niveous by Benjamin Moore is a softly shaded white carrying muted green undertones that prevent it from reading as stark or clinical. At an LRV of 75.2, it reflects substantial light while maintaining a quiet warmth that distinguishes it from pure whites. This makes it well suited for bedrooms, kitchens, and living rooms where a bright but gentle backdrop is needed.

The green cast becomes more noticeable against cooler grays and can be tempered or highlighted depending on pairings. Benjamin Moore Cloud White, Swiss Coffee, Hunter Green, Hale Navy, and Seafoam Green complement its understated tonal shift.
