About Dunn-Edwards White

White is very light — LRV 100, close to white. It opens up small or dim rooms and keeps walls feeling airy. Because it carries almost no measurable hue, it stays a true neutral and pairs cleanly with nearly any trim or floor. In north light it can read slightly cooler; a warm white trim alongside keeps it from going clinical.

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. As a white, it's a natural for trim, ceilings and cabinets, and a clean backdrop for art.
