Sherwin Williams

First Star

SW 7646

First Star by Sherwin-Williams is a cool, softly muted white with gray undertones that prevent it from reading stark or clinical on walls and ceilings. At an LRV of 69, it sits just below the bright-white threshold, making it a functional whole-house neutral for living areas, bedrooms, and hallways where a soft cool tone is preferred over a warm white. The gray undertone is subtle but readable in north-facing rooms.

Passive works as a slightly deeper wall companion, Olympus White pairs as a ceiling tone, and Naval and Iron Ore provide strong contrast for accents.
