  • After many years of picking paint colors for clients, I am sharing the most popular paint colors by designers. Here are my top and the best Behr white paint colors.
    Some of these colours are perfect on trim while other are better on walls. You will find tips on selecting paint colors for your exterior, interior, accent walls, trim, doors, furniture, and more ideas.
    We will also talk about the LRV (Light Reflective Value) and the color number and how they aid you in selecting the right white color. And videos and images of rooms with some of the colors in them.

    Hi, great video! I have used silky white many times when I want to paint a piece of furniture white and have gray in the walls or violet walls. Used it recently as trim with a pink lavender on my daughters walls. It’s just a little softer than builders white. It would be quite cool on walls I think. Weathered white is another great white with cooler undertones but a soft look. I was going to use Swiss coffee on a south facing screened in porch and it became too yellow ish so I did weathered white. The perfect white for such a room!!

      I am so glad it was helpful! My guest bedroom is facing southwest so it gets that beautiful afternoon golden glow. I love the white color of Ultra Pure White by Behr in this room. Keep in mind that this white is a white white. If you want a more off white color look at Blank Canvas by Behr. It is a nice neutral base white. I used it in my closet converted to butlers pantry and love it! It is on the side walls in the pantry. Good luck!

    Oh and spun wool is beautiful too, but I only did it on a small cabinet where the walls were ashen tan behr. These are next to each other on a chip and looked very nice! Ashen tan is in the range of lightness of burnished clay but more brown/pinky red so warmer than burnished clay.

    OMG!! What a great video to come across!! Thank you!!!! Question..... We are looking for white paint for all of the walls in our house, as well as interior doors, trim, and ceilings. We do prefer cooler tones, but thought blank canvas might be best as it is the color of 2023. We have black hardware on our doors as extra information. Thank you again. 😃

    • @LifeonSummerhill
      @LifeonSummerhill  Před rokem

      Thank you! I am so glad this has helped. Blank Canvas is a great color for your entire house. However, it does have a warmer undertone and if placed next to white it is slightly off-white but personally, I think it has a cozier feeling. If you want a white-white color then I would look at White. There is an example of a kitchen in white in this blog post. lifeonsummerhill.com/best-behr-white-paint-colors/

    I used Bakery Box for trim, baseboards, doors throughout my house. I love the super crisp look with my earthy gray quartzite counters that has charcoal and taupe veins. I'm wondering if weathered white walls would work with the cool bright white trim. I also am choosing a black or dark charcoal accent color above the fireplace. I'm not super fond of the cool black options. Are there any neutral or slightly warm blacks that would work?

    I used Behr Painters White in my living room/dinning, and it looks like a very light gray on my darker wall, but the wall that has a lot of light coming in looks more white, but I would say it has a grayish white. I also painted my bathroom and guest room Polar Bear and it does have a yellow undertone when compared to a white, but it looks just like a neutral white when you don't compare it. I love both, but love Painted white more, I feel like it has more personality plus everything is gray in those rooms.

    • @LifeonSummerhill
      @LifeonSummerhill  Před rokem +2

      That doesn't sound right. Any chance they mixed it wrong? It is one number away from Swiss Coffee so basically the same color as Swiss Coffee. Another thought is your lighting. If your lighting is a warm light it can make the color look more on the warm side meaning yellow undertones. If you change your bulbs to a cool light it will make it not as yellow. However, not everyone loves living in a cool light setting and in that case I would go with a white with a cool undertone. I hope this helps!

I chose "Bit of Sugar" (LRV 89 R 244 G 242 B 236) one these wall. Omg, waaaay too white. Like a sterile/cold/stark white. I don't like it at all. (yes, should've tested!)

    As a renter (been in this house for 11 years) I treat this house as my home, and our landlady lets us paint. even though it’s not mine.
    I have to think about how I could quickly get this house in ship-shape if we ever had to leave. So I’m thinking of using Ultra Pure white on the hallway, two of the bedrooms, the laundry room and dining room.
    Since there’s no tint to match, whenever we have to leave, it should be simple to touch up this way.

However, the Ultra Pure White by Behr, with its neutral tone and high LRV, is one I want to look at, primarily for its lower price point. What finish would you recommend for doors/trim and baseboards -- semi gloss or something else?

      @LifeonSummerhill  Před rokem

      Yes you can! But it can be tricky meaning if your doors are a white with a yellow undertone they could look dingy. I would try it out on one door after you paint the walls and trim to see what you think.
