What color is this?

Let me add. Go to SW store (or order online).

They have the larger stick on samples. About $5 each.

Or if online, and you felt more sure, buy those tiny samples and test on your wall.

I have a specific trim color, and I’m always checking paint colors to work with my trim (contrast enough, and not be lighter than it)

Last tip: with the samples up, take a strategically angled pic. Like the trim, the sample and a piece of furniture closeby (table with some books and flowers). Crop the picture so it looks like that is the only paint. See if you like it!

I’m looking for an off-white similar to this that doesn’t pull too much yellow when paired with white ceiling/trim. This looks perfect, but I can’t find a color like this when I search Behr or Ben Moore. Everything looks yellow online.

It's Ben Moore Classic Grey, Silver Satin, or White Dove. All 3 look like that depending on the lighting.

Looks like Agreeable Gray. Will vary greatly depending on the temperature of the lighting in the room.

BM Seapearl looks exactly like this in our living room.

Remember, depending on factors like your lightbulbs, windows, direction of sunlight, ceiling height, trim color, etc, any pain color can look completely different, even 2 rooms painted the same color in the same house.

Greek Villa will most definitely read yellow next to white trim.

1) You will never be able to match a color you see on your computer monitor because the monitors will always skew the colors.
2) There is no way to tell how a particular color looks in your specific room without holding a paint sample in that room (even better if you can paint a square on the wall).

I used a light gray in my house and it looks completely different in every room, depending on the lighting conditions and time of day. In some rooms it looks white, in the bathroom it leans pink, and in the living room where I selected that color, it looks exactly like I wanted.
