What color is Sherwin Williams Solstice?
Sherwin Williams Solstice SW 9571 is a pale, low-saturation neutral with a soft gray cast and a slight beige warmth. Its light value keeps walls looking open without reading as stark white, while the muted undertone gives it a gently softened, almost weathered appearance. In bright daylight, Solstice can appear like a clean warm gray; under warmer lamps, its beige notes become more noticeable. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and whole-home wall color schemes where stronger finishes need a quiet backdrop. Pair it with natural oak, linen upholstery, creamy whites, charcoal accents, or brushed nickel for a restrained, layered interior.

LRV of Solstice
Solstice has an LRV of 69.28% and refers to Light colors that reflect most 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 69.28%, 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.
