Sherwin Williams

Dorian Gray

SW 7017

Dorian Gray (SW 7017) is a medium-light gray with warm undertones and a subtle beige influence that places it in the greige category. Its LRV of 39 keeps it in the mid-range, dark enough to register as a definite color on walls yet light enough for larger rooms, hallways, and common areas. It shifts slightly warmer in south-facing light.

It coordinates naturally with Sherwin-Williams Alabaster (SW 7008) and Greek Villa (SW 7551) for trim pairings. Mindful Gray (SW 7016) and Repose Gray (SW 7015) offer tonal continuity, while Urbane Bronze (SW 7048) provides grounding contrast.
