SW 7046

Anonymous from Sherwin-Williams is a deep, muted neutral that falls between taupe and olive-gray, carrying a subtle green undertone. With an LRV of 20, it absorbs considerably more light than it reflects, producing a grounded, enveloping effect best suited to rooms with ample natural light or layered textures. The low chroma and balanced temperature allow it to anchor earthy and modern palettes without skewing overly warm or cool.

It coordinates well with warm whites like Alabaster or Greek Villa, tonal companions such as Rosemary and Dried Thyme, and deeper contrasts like Inkwell.

Anonymous in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
