What Color Is Onyx White, Really?
Onyx White reads as a warm red-orange tone — very light — near-white, broadens small spaces. The notes below cover how Benjamin Moore 1135 behaves in different light and the closest matches at competing US brands.
Best Rooms and Uses for Onyx White
Onyx White shines on ceilings, trim and in small or low-light rooms where you need to stretch the light — and as a calm whole-home backdrop. Greige-leaning neutrals like this are the safe whole-home choice when you want warmth without committing to a color.
How Lighting Changes Onyx White
Onyx White is very light — LRV 77, close to white. It opens up small or dim rooms and keeps walls feeling airy. Its orange undertone is the part to watch: it gets picked up by whatever sits next to it, so test it against your trim, floor and the room's main light before committing. In north light it can read slightly cooler; a warm white trim alongside keeps it from going clinical.
Most complaints about Onyx White are a light mismatch. Upload a photo of your actual room and see it on your walls — then ask for the same wall in north light or evening lamps before you buy a single sample.
