AGI's Favorite White Paint Colors

If you’ve been around the block with any design project, you know that white paint is not just white paint. There are hundreds of white paints that run the spectrum from warm to neutral to cool. I can’t tell you how many times we’re asked about paint colors in our projects, and since colors read differently in spaces, and certainly in photographs, we’re spilling the tea on a few of our go-to white paints. Get ready to pin your favorites!

The walls and vertical plank in this light and bright kitchen needed to be neutral and crisp. Our favorite all-around white is Pure White - Sherwin Williams.

A dreamy farmhouse bedroom called for an all-time classic, warm white: White Dove by Benjamin Moore

The dining room in this open-concept home called for a slightly cooler white to neutralize the golden natural light. When we need just a hint of gray in our white, we like Drift of Mist by Sherwin Williams.

This layered dining room was all about balance between light walls and a moody, textural wallpapered ceiling. Benjamin Moore’s Chantilly Lace has just a hint of cream that’s so perfect in rooms that get bright, but indirect light.

I could go on and on about successful white colors. These are the few we trust to use time and time again!
