What color is Sherwin Williams Roycroft Mist Gray?
Sherwin Williams Roycroft Mist Gray SW 2844 is a muted light gray with a noticeable warm beige cast, giving it a soft greige appearance rather than a crisp, blue-leaning gray. Its low saturation keeps the color quiet and slightly weathered-looking, especially on broad wall surfaces. In bright daylight, Roycroft Mist Gray can read as a pale warm gray, while lower or warmer artificial light brings out more of its beige undertone. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and painted millwork where a gentle neutral is wanted without the brightness of off-white. Pair this shade with creamy whites, medium wood tones, aged brass, charcoal accents, or natural linen for a grounded, restrained palette.

LRV of Roycroft Mist Gray
Roycroft Mist Gray has an LRV of 51.3% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 51.3%, 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.
