What color is Sherwin Williams Cotton White?
Sherwin Williams Cotton White SW 7104 is a very light off-white with a gentle warm cast, reading closer to soft cream than crisp, bluish white. Its #f7efe3 value suggests subtle beige and buttery undertones that keep the color from looking stark. In bright daylight, Cotton White can appear clean and softly sunlit, while lower or warmer artificial light may bring out its creamier side. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a pale wall color is wanted without the sharp contrast of pure white. Pair it with natural oak, linen upholstery, warm gray accents, or muted earthy greens for a grounded palette.
LRV of Cotton White
Cotton White has an LRV of 87.06% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all 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 87.06%, 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.
