Sherwin Williams

Aged White

SW 9180

Aged White (SW, #E8DECD) is a soft, muted white with warm beige undertones and a slightly creamy cast. At an LRV of 74, it reflects a high amount of light while maintaining enough pigment to avoid the starkness of a pure white. Despite its name, it does not read as yellowed, rather, it functions as a warm off-white with a grounded, understated quality.

Sherwin-Williams Shiitake and Balanced Beige complement it in a warm taupe range, while Urbane Bronze and Needlepoint Navy offer deeper contrast. Pure White on trim and Creamy as a lighter wall option support a layered neutral approach.
