More about Origami White

Origami White is a soft, light off-white at LRV 76 with a barely-there greige warmth — clean enough to feel fresh, soft enough to avoid the chill of a true white. It's a flexible whole-house choice that works on walls and trim alike, especially in rooms with good light.

Its faint warmth keeps it livable but can show slightly beside a stark white. It's a near-identical match for Benjamin Moore Classic Gray, which makes it a familiar soft neutral by another name; Behr Weathered White is also very close.
