About Delicate Lace
Delicate Lace (PPU5-11) is a very light warm white from Behr with a warm yellow undertone. With an LRV of 80, Delicate Lace reflects most of the light that hits it, which helps small or dim rooms feel larger.
In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Delicate Lace's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for whole-house walls, living rooms, bedrooms and trim with a deeper wall color. Next to Tuscan Beige (PWN-62), it's lighter and warmer.
