This post on the best Benjamin Moore white paint colors for the home first appeared here in 2015.
However, since then I’ve updated it to include a few more great white paint choices.
I still stand by the original ones in this post as well!
How to choose the best white paint color to use in your own home.
The interest in popular white paint colors seems to grow every year.
These are my tried and true Benjamin Moore White Paint favorites I turn to every time.
Benjamin Moore’s Decorators White Paint
Considered to be one of the cooler whites to neutral whites – it’s a very popular choice with staying power.
Wanting a modern look, they both picked it themselves and it ended up to be the perfect choice.
It’s worth noting one daughter has a north facing room and one has a south-facing room – this white looks great in both!
Benjamin Moore’s White Dove OC-17
Another great option is BM White Dove.
It has a lot of depth to it.
Benjamin Moore’s White OC – 151
Benjamin Moore’s Calm (a favorite pseudo white paint of mine.)
Benjamin Moore Simply White kitchen cabinets – True North Cabinets.
Benjamin Moore Simply White
Finally, I had to include Simply White by Benjamin Moore.
It’s such a great color and so popular for a reason!
Simply white is a fresh white paint color that’s perfect on everything – ceilings, trim color, walls, built ins, white cabinets, you name it.
It’s off-white so it’s not too bright, but it’s light enough that it will still add a fresh and clean look to any space.
It can be the perfect backdrop for any room in your home.
Benjamin Moore White Paint Conclusion

TRY OUT SEVERAL WHITE PAINT SAMPLES
These large self sticking paint samples are absolutely brilliant!
I can’t recommend trying it out as a sample in your home first enough.
Maybe this seems so obvious, but even the surrounding light and lighting conditions from one interior space to another can differ.
So, live with a few samples in different light for a few days before making your decision.
Test it out in natural light and artificial light too!
Another good reason to try these self stick paint samples, no messy paint cans and brushes to deal with!

Thanks for confirming what we are using in our bungalow. We are doing the walls and ceilings in Calm and the trim in White Dove. What sheen did you use on walls and trim?
We have stripped the hardwood (pine) floors and are doing refinishing them in Minwax pre-tinted white wash stain.
You’re final 4 are what was left after our elimination. I spent the last week getting to those colors and Benjamin Moore.
Your advise on the sheen is how we will complete it.
THANKS!
Great post! I just used BM Calm for entire interior of a flip I’m working on. Both walls and ceilings. I used BM Super White for all the trim. I loved these 2 colors together on the swatches, however, on the walls/trim I’m hardly seeing any contrast at all! Ugh! What trim color did you use with Calm?
We used white dove, check out this post here: https://thezhush.com/the-3-best-white-paint-colors-for-trim-and-baseboards/
What’s your favorite white paint for (exterior) cedar shakes?
This was helpful, thank you.
For the Family Room in Calm is everything the same color? wall, trim and ceiling? tnx!
For the family room the Calm looks beautiful! Did you use it everywhere trim and ceiling as well or a different white? Tnx!
White dove and China white are faves of ours, so crisp and clean with yellow!
I use cloud white from BM a lot!
All of the painted wood and moldings in your home are beautiful!
