What color is Sherwin Williams Crisp Linen?

Sherwin Williams Crisp Linen SW 6378 is a pale, softly warmed off-white with a gentle cream-beige cast. Its light value keeps walls bright without reading as sharp or icy, while the #f3e6d4 color value suggests a subtle yellow-peach warmth beneath the surface. In north-facing rooms, Crisp Linen may appear a little more muted and beige; direct warm daylight can bring out its creamy glow. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a clean but less stark alternative to white is wanted. Pair it with natural oak, woven linen, warm brass, clay-toned accents, or deeper brown-gray trim for contrast.

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 80.56%, 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.
