What color is Sherwin Williams Polar Bear?
Sherwin Williams Polar Bear SW 7564 is a light, warm off-white with a noticeable beige-cream cast rather than a crisp white appearance. Its #e8dfca color value gives it soft yellow-tan undertones that become more apparent in warm afternoon sun, while cooler daylight can make it look like a muted pale beige. Polar Bear is well suited to main walls, ceilings, and trim when a room needs warmth without moving into a deeper neutral. Pair it with natural oak, linen upholstery, sandy stone, and muted olive or clay accents for an earthy, grounded palette. On cabinetry, this shade can soften a kitchen or bathroom alongside brushed brass hardware and warmer white tile.

LRV of Polar Bear
Polar Bear has an LRV of 74.21% 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 74.21%, 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.
