Sherwin Williams

Dry Dock

SW 7502

Dry Dock is a warm, mid-tone neutral with taupe undertones and an LRV of 28. Its blend of brown and gray gives it a grounded, earthy quality that reads consistently in both natural and artificial light. This depth makes it suitable for accent walls, exterior trim, or furniture pieces where a warm anchor tone is needed.

Dry Dock coordinates well with Sherwin-Williams Natural Tan, Accessible Beige, Kilim Beige, and Shoji White, forming layered warm-neutral schemes that transition smoothly from dark to light.

Dry Dock in Different Light
