Benjamin Moore

Winter White

2140-70 / OC-21

Winter White (BM) is a cool white with a gray undertone, carrying a hex value of #E7E9E2 and an LRV of 79.58. The gray cast prevents it from reading as a stark or optical white, giving it a slightly muted quality. It reflects light efficiently given its high LRV.

Compatible Benjamin Moore pairings include Gray Owl, Classic Gray, Kendall Charcoal, Hale Navy, and Palladian Blue. Its cool-neutral character makes it suitable as a wall or ceiling color in spaces where a softer alternative to pure white is needed without introducing visible warmth.
