Benjamin Moore

Windswept

OC-94 / 905

Windswept (BM) is an off-white with pronounced cream undertones, registering an LRV of 83.76, which places it in the high-reflectance range suitable for brightening enclosed or low-light rooms. The yellow-cream bias in the base becomes more apparent under warm artificial lighting and recedes slightly under cooler daylight. Within the Benjamin Moore catalog, Windswept coordinates well with White Dove, Swiss Coffee, Kendall Charcoal, Hale Navy, and Palladian Blue, allowing flexibility across trim, accent wall, and cabinetry applications in both warm and contrasting schemes.
