White Dove Paint Swatch

One of the questions i ve been getting a lot lately is the paint colour we used for our trim and doors and fireplace on our main floor.

White dove paint swatch. White dove has a definite warm creamy undertone. Warm white paint colours have undertones of red orange and yellow resulting in a soft glow and welcoming vibe seen in this capri coast oc 87 painted. Tyler and i looked at each other shrugged and decided we might as well give it a try. Recognizing undertones in white paint paint colours are often created by using two or more colours.

It looks like i painted a primer. After testing several whites alongside our new kitchen cabinets hardwood floors and wall colour we ending up going with benjamin moore white dove oc 17. If there is a higher percentage of one colour over the other that creates an undertone. However in a surprise twist the shade can also show gray undertones which helps the color not feel overly warm.

There s such a thing as having too many options to choose from when it comes to selecting the right white paint for your home s exterior. When placed against a light gray the swatch of white dove presents with a taupe undertone making it almost a greige. For reference here s how it compared to the other two paint samples i showed a few weeks ago. Benjamin moore white dove is a beautiful soft white paint colour with a hint of grey making it a popular choice for trim cabinets walls and more.

For this reason we tend to recommend just a few options for this neutral and benjamin moore white dove paint certainly makes the list. So if looking at paint sample cards and comparing swatches on siding has got you feeling weary and overwhelmed take it from us as to why white dove is a safe choice for nearly any home. That s not a coincidence.
