What color is Sherwin Williams Westhighland White?

Sherwin Williams Westhighland White SW 7566 is a light, softly warm off-white with a creamy beige cast rather than a crisp, icy white appearance. Its #f3eee3 color value gives it a gentle muted quality, so it can soften broad walls without looking overly yellow or stark. In bright natural light, Westhighland White reads pale and clean while retaining a hint of warmth; lower or warmer lighting can bring out its subtle ivory-beige character. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and whole-home wall color schemes where a hard white would feel too sharp. Pair it with natural oak, warm stone, linen upholstery, brushed brass, or deeper earthy accents for a cohesive finish.

What are Sherwin Williams Westhighland White undertones?

Westhighland White reads as a very light, softly muted white with a subtle warm, yellow-leaning bias in the supplied digital sample. The warmth is slight rather than strongly creamy or beige, so it can still appear close to neutral depending on surrounding colors and light. Sherwin-Williams describes it as a white paint color but does not make an official undertone claim on the provided page. Warm artificial lighting may bring out its gentle warmth, while cool daylight can make it look cleaner and more neutral.

LRV of Westhighland White

Westhighland White has an LRV of 85.81% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all light. Why LRV is important?

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 85.81%, 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.
