Cream Paint Colors
When it comes to choosing paint colors, no shade is more timeless than cream. Cream paint colors can be paired with bright, bold hues in a large space, or paired with muted pastels. Regardless of the accent colors you decide to pursue, consider using one of these designers’ go-to cream paint colors.

Windham Cream
HC-6 / LRV: 80.4
Depending on your lighting, windham cream can look like a deep yellow or a creamy off-white. The more windows and natural lighting you have, the lighter the color will look.
Windham Cream pairs well with:
Philadelphia Cream
HC-30 / LRV: 70.61
Benjamin Moore Philadelphia Cream is a warm neutral. It has the slightest hint of brown undertones. It works well with many different colors because of it’s neutral body.
Philadelphia Cream pairs well with:
Natural Cream
OC-14 / LRV: 66.26
Natural cream is very similar to edgecomb gray without any purple undertone. I like to call this a muddy cream. This color is really a mix of gray, yellow and white. It’s one of the most popular cream paint colors.

Gentle Cream
Benjamin Moore / OC-96 / LRV: 72.8
Some people may find gentle cream a bit too light, but I find it soothing and richly shaded. It adds depth and interest especially in formal living spaces. White it does lean more yellow, it’s definitely not overpowering.
Gentle Cream pairs well with:
Rich Cream
2153-60 / LRV: 78.41
Rich cream looks very different depending on the lighting. Natural lighting will make it look lighter and cleaner like it does in the second picture below. In areas that don’t have much natural lighting, rich cream will look like a sweet almond creme.
Rich Cream pairs well with:
Linen White
OC-146 / LRV: 82.9
A decorator favorite, this light, creamy off-white is a never-fail neutral for walls, trim, doors and ceilings. As clean and comfortable as fresh linen, it relies on a yellow undertone for added warmth.
Linen White pairs well with:

What is the paint color in the dining room of the first picture, your feature pic?
The paint color is Benjamin Moore Spring in Aspen (954) and it is part of the Classic Collection.
Would Spring in Aspen pair well with oyster white by Sherman Williams? I already have that all my walls in kitchen and want to paint family room and foyer now. You can see all 3 rooms when you walk into my home
Benjamin Moore’s Spring in Aspen has more brown/red undertones, where Oyster White seems to have more of a slight green undertone. That’s not to say that it won’t pair well together, but you might want to look at something that would tie both colors together. Maybe something like SW White Sesame or White Opulence.
