Maritime White

Maritime White has a warm yellow undertone, so it reads as a warm color. In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Maritime White's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward.

Maritime White has a light reflectance value (LRV) of 74.1 on a scale where 0 is black and 100 is pure white, which makes it a light color. With an LRV of 74, Maritime White reflects most of the light that hits it, which helps small or dim rooms feel larger.
