What color is Sherwin Williams Crescent Cream?

Sherwin Williams Crescent Cream SW 7721 is a light, warm neutral with a noticeable peach-beige cast. Its soft golden undertone keeps it from reading like a plain off-white, giving walls a gentle buff color in daylight. In warm artificial light, Crescent Cream can lean more apricot, while cooler daylight may make it appear quieter and more tan. It suits bedrooms, living rooms, and dining areas where a pale wall color needs more warmth than cream alone. Pair this shade with natural oak, woven linen, terracotta accents, warm white trim, or muted olive and dusty blue textiles.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 66.57%, 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.
