What color is Sherwin Williams Medici Ivory?
Sherwin Williams Medici Ivory SW 7558 is a very light, softly warm off-white with a gentle cream-beige cast. Its pale value keeps walls bright without reading as stark white, while the muted color gives it a slightly softened, powdery appearance. In sunny rooms, Medici Ivory can look lighter and creamier; under cooler artificial light, its beige undertone may be more noticeable. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a warm neutral backdrop is wanted, and it can also soften cabinetry or trim paired with warmer white walls. Try it alongside natural oak, linen upholstery, tan leather, brushed brass, and muted olive or clay accents.

What are Sherwin Williams Medici Ivory undertones?
Medici Ivory is a near-white, very muted creamy off-white. The HEX sample has a subtle yellow-orange bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear yellow-orange. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.

LRV of Medici Ivory
Medici Ivory has an LRV of 82.02% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all 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 82.02%, 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.
