Benjamin Moore

Olympic Mountains

971 / OC-31

Olympic Mountains by Benjamin Moore is a soft off-white distinguished by warm gray undertones that prevent it from reading as stark or cold. With an LRV of 70.15, it reflects substantial light while maintaining a slightly muted character, making it a practical choice for living rooms, bedrooms, and kitchens where a warm but neutral background is needed. The gray cast keeps it grounded compared to brighter whites.

It works well alongside Benjamin Moore's Edgecomb Gray, Balboa Mist, Kendall Charcoal, Hale Navy, and Revere Pewter, supporting both tonal and high-contrast color schemes.

Olympic Mountains 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.
