Ethereal Mood

SW 7639

Ethereal Mood is an earthy, mid-tone neutral with subtle green undertones that shift slightly warm or cool depending on the light source. At an LRV of 38, it reflects a moderate amount of light and is well suited for living rooms, bedrooms, and transitional hallways. It pairs naturally with Sherwin-Williams Accessible Beige and Oyster Bar for a layered earth-tone scheme, while Alabaster provides clean trim contrast and Urbane Bronze adds grounding depth to the overall palette.
