What color is Sherwin Williams Ibis White?

Sherwin Williams Ibis White SW 7000 is a pale off-white with a noticeable warm cast, reading closer to soft ivory than a crisp, icy white. Its #f2ece6 color value suggests a gentle beige-peach undertone that keeps walls from looking stark. In bright daylight, Ibis White can appear light and clean while retaining a subtle creamy softness; under warm evening bulbs, that warmth becomes more apparent. It suits bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways where a softened white is preferable to a sharp gallery-white finish. Pair it with natural oak, linen upholstery, brushed brass, muted clay tones, or medium warm-gray accents for a grounded palette.

LRV of Ibis White

Ibis White has an LRV of 84.42% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all light. Why LRV is important?

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 84.42%, 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.
