Interesting! I've been doing a bit of research and also seem to like Behr's Polar Bear color.

You may like Polar Bear, but will you like it once it's in the room? Keep in mind that all the off white colors belong to a hue family--that is they are a lightened version of pink, blue, yellow, purple, green or orange. It's possible that Polar Bear belongs to a hue family that might conflict with what you have in the bathroom. So you'll paint it and then be back here on the DDs saying "I painted my bathroom Polar Bear, and I hate it because it looks blue/green/yellow,etc." Unless you know exactly how Polar Bear will behave in your room with your light, you would be better off just painting it Ultra Pure White, since you already know that color works.

Or you could see if color guru, Lori Sawaya, would weigh in here. She has an amazing color strategy and could tell you what Polar Bear would look like in your room.

Aw, thanks, @Diana.

UPW is always and option, because it will look nice with the glass tile and, of course, go with the trim.

Polar Bear belongs to the yellow hue family. Ultra Pure White the Green-Yellow hue family.

I'd be looking to see how Polar Bear related to the green-blue glass tile. I'd be looking for that edge of yellowness.

In terms of Chroma they work. Polar Bear has a nice bump more Chroma and that's a good thing.

If Polar Bear doesn't work, then I'd be looking for a white from the same Green-Blue hue family as the tiles.

Thoughts on Whisper White, @Lori?

If choosing white, stay w/the same ultra white. The gray isn't bad, just the wrong tone. look at SW Crushed Ice. its a very light gray.

or (and Behr can color match these)

Thoughts on Whisper White, @Lori?

From Behr or another brand?

@ Lori, Behr...

I have two Behr fandecks, a white brochure and a huge library of paint color data values and Whisper White isn't in any of them.

So, I dont' know.

It's their Home Decorator Color,,,one of the off-shoots. that's prob why you don't have it.

it's the middle one behind polar bear. All 3 of these whites are almost identical. I don't think you can go wrong with either to go w/the Ultra.

I'm sure the room or trim have been painted more than once by now, but since this post is still accessible to readers I wanted to share a comment. Polar Bear white is an excellent choice - it's a soft white and blends perfectly. Also, some times 'white-white' paints can be very difficult to apply because of lack of pigment. Polar Bear has just enough color to avoid this. It is a bright white, but has a soft edge to it and looks great with grays, beiges, off-whites, blues, reds, and yellows.
