What color is Sherwin Williams Gauzy White?

Sherwin Williams Gauzy White SW 6035 is a pale, softly muted off-white with a gentle warm gray-beige cast. Its #e3dbd4 color value gives it a subtle blush of warmth rather than a crisp, bright-white appearance. In daylight, Gauzy White can read as a lightly warmed neutral; under warmer evening bulbs, its beige and faint rosy notes may become more noticeable. It suits bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways where a low-contrast wall color is wanted without the starkness of pure white. Pair it with natural oak, linen upholstery, warm gray tile, and deeper taupe or charcoal accents for definition.

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 71.69%, 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.
