What color is Sherwin Williams Anew Gray?
Sherwin Williams Anew Gray SW 7030 is a light, muted gray with a noticeable beige cast that keeps it from feeling icy or stark. Its soft, low-saturation appearance suits living rooms, bedrooms, and open-plan spaces where a pale neutral is needed without the brightness of an off-white. In warmer lighting, Anew Gray can lean more greige, while cooler daylight brings out its gray side. It pairs well with cream trim, natural oak, linen upholstery, and charcoal or black metal accents. This shade is especially effective on main walls and can also give cabinetry a quiet, understated neutral finish.

What are Sherwin Williams Anew Gray undertones?
Anew Gray reads as a mid-light, very muted neutral with a soft gray-beige character rather than a strong or cool gray. The supplied digital color sample leans slightly yellow, which can make its neutral base look a touch warmer, though that bias is subtle. Sherwin-Williams classifies Anew Gray as a Neutral paint color and does not state a specific undertone on the provided page. Warm artificial light may bring out more of its beige warmth, while cool daylight can make it appear more conventionally gray and restrained.

LRV of Anew Gray
Anew Gray has an LRV of 47.4% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 47.4%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
