What color is Sherwin Williams Gorgeous White?
Sherwin Williams Gorgeous White SW 6049 is a pale, warm off-white with a gentle blush-beige cast. Its light value keeps walls bright, while the soft pink-tan undertone gives it more presence than a plain white. In north-facing or cooler light, it may read as a muted rosy neutral; warmer afternoon light can bring out its creamy, peach-leaning side. Use it in bedrooms, living rooms, or softly layered kitchens with natural oak, linen, warm brass, and terracotta or clay accents. Crisp charcoal, deep olive, and dusty blue can provide grounded contrast against this shade.
LRV of Gorgeous White
Gorgeous White has an LRV of 72.23% 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 72.23%, 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.
