What color is Sherwin Williams Reserved White?

Sherwin Williams Reserved White SW 7056 is a pale, muted off-white with a light gray cast and a subtle hint of warmth from its softened, slightly creamy base. It reads clean without looking stark, making it useful for walls where bright white would feel too sharp. In daylight, Reserved White can appear softly gray-white, while warmer artificial light may bring out its faint beige-yellow undertone. It suits bedrooms, hallways, and open living areas, especially alongside natural oak, linen upholstery, matte black hardware, or soft charcoal accents. Use it on trim and cabinetry when you want a low-contrast look rather than a crisp white outline.

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 74.08%, 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.
