Looking for the perfect white paint or off white.

7 years ago

My house is small. I want to paint all the walls a creamy white color but not beige. The trim will be a lighter white. Does anyone know of a brand of paint and color I should look at? Thanks everyone.

I'm looking at Benjamin Moore Pale Oak or Balboa Mist for my home. I think these look so pretty with white trim.

Hey-just need to pass on that, for my purposes, Valspar Reserve Paint+Primer UNTINTED Ultra White Base AA in satin or semi-gloss is the purest, brightest white paint I've found ANYWHERE!!!!!! Repainting wood kitchen cabinets and trim and I needed an excessively pure white paint to brighten up the interior of our home, set in NC woods. Got mine at Lowe's. High quality, rich mixture, nice application....well worth evert penny!! Good luck with your project!

Maybe BM Monterey White? It is a very creamy off-white and in the historical collection. I don't know that it has a gray undertone - I would say it has a green undertone - but it's on all the trim throughout my house and I like it with the other grieges I'm using. I've used BM Cloud White on trim and furniture as well, and it looks just a little bit gray to me on a paint chip, though very white on the wall.

Your range hood is gorgeous. I think that the off-white glazed cabinets would look stunning with the range hood, i think they would defintely compliment each other. The plain white would look to simple next to that hood. In the magazine picture of the kitchen you posted, those cabinets look white with no glaze and the kitchen has a very crisp, formal look to it. I think the range hood that you picked looks very warm and the cabinets would look beutiful with the glaze.

Have you considered a matte finish rather than polished? I find they don't look as bright.

I painted my whole house last year with Behr off white Ultra Scuff Defense stain blocking paint & primer. Matte for walls and ceiling; satin for doors and trim. Everyone always comments on my wall color and they want to know what make and shade of white I used as they love it❣️

I used Benjamin Moore Capitol White throughout our small cottage. It is a creamy white that looks good in every room. It's not a paint chip, but on a larger color booklet (which I can't remember off hand).
