Dhurrie Beige

SW 7524

Dhurrie Beige is a warm neutral with soft taupe undertones that prevent it from leaning too yellow or too pink. At an LRV of 50, it reflects a moderate amount of light, making it functional as a main wall color in living rooms, bedrooms, and open-plan spaces. Its mid-tone warmth provides enough contrast against white trim without darkening a room significantly.

Dhurrie Beige coordinates naturally with Sherwin-Williams Accessible Beige, Balanced Beige, and Kilim Beige for tonal layering, while Alabaster and Shoji White serve as clean trim companions.

Dhurrie Beige 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.
