Chantilly Lace vs Paper White
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Chantilly Lace belongs to the green-white family and Paper White to the green-grey family. Chantilly Lace (LRV 90) reflects noticeably more light than Paper White (LRV 74), a difference of 16 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean green, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 7.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 5 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Chantilly Lace vs Paper White in Real Spaces
5 real rooms side by side. Chantilly Lace and Paper White are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room

Bedroom

Kitchen
In a kitchen, colors are seen under bright task lighting that amplifies undertones — what reads neutral elsewhere can show its hand here. Chantilly Lace reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Paper White.

Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. Chantilly Lace reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Paper White.
Kitchen Cabinets
