Benjamin Moore

Soft Chamois

969 / OC-13

Soft Chamois is a warm off-white with faint beige-yellow undertones that keep it from reading as stark or clinical. At an LRV of 77.4, it reflects a high amount of light while maintaining a slight tonal depth that pure whites lack. The yellow lean becomes more apparent under incandescent lighting, where it shifts noticeably warmer.

It sits comfortably alongside Benjamin Moore White Dove, Pale Oak, and Smoky Taupe in tonal range, and can be grounded with deeper neutrals like Chelsea Gray or Revere Pewter without creating harsh contrast.
