What color is Sherwin Williams Spatial White?
Sherwin Williams Spatial White SW 6259 is a very light, low-saturation off-white with a faint gray cast. Its nearly even color balance keeps it looking quiet and neutral, though the slight warmth in the hue prevents it from reading icy. In bright daylight, Spatial White can appear close to a soft pale gray-white, while dimmer rooms may bring out its gentle muted depth. It is well suited to whole-room walls, ceilings, and trim when a crisp pure white would feel too stark. Pair it with natural oak, brushed nickel, charcoal accents, or layered warm-gray textiles for a restrained, tonal interior.

LRV of Spatial White
Spatial White has an LRV of 71.87% 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 71.87%, 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.
