What color is Sherwin Williams Pure White?
Sherwin Williams Pure White SW 7005 is a pale, softly warmed white with a faint ivory cast visible in its #edece6 color value. It reads clean without looking stark, carrying just enough muted warmth to sit comfortably beside natural oak, linen, and brushed brass. In bright daylight, Pure White can appear airy and lightly creamy, while lower or cooler light may bring out its subtle gray-beige softness. It is well suited to walls and trim in living rooms, bedrooms, and kitchens where a hard, blue-white finish would feel too sharp. Pair it with warm gray upholstery, clay-toned accents, or charcoal details for contrast.
LRV of Pure White
Pure White has an LRV of 83.96% 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 83.96%, 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.
