What color is Sherwin Williams Aura White?
Sherwin Williams Aura White SW 6532 is a very light, cool-leaning gray with a faint blue cast visible beneath its soft white appearance. Its low saturation keeps the color airy rather than icy, though north-facing rooms may bring out more of that pale blue-gray character. On walls, Aura White gives bedrooms, bathrooms, and quiet living spaces a clean backdrop with more definition than a basic white. Pair it with crisp white trim for a subtle layered look, or introduce pale oak, brushed nickel, charcoal, and muted navy for contrast. In warmer evening light, this shade can read as a gentle light gray rather than stark white.

LRV of Aura White
Aura White has an LRV of 75.53% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of 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 75.53%, 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.
