Sherwin Williams

Foggy Day

SW 6235

Foggy Day is a cool medium blue-gray with a muted, subdued character that limits its chromatic intensity. With an LRV of 20, it falls on the darker side of the mid-range and suits accent walls, exteriors, and cabinetry. Snowbound and Pure White provide strong light contrast on trim, while Accessible Beige introduces a warmer neutral counterpoint.

Gray Screen works as a tonal companion in layered gray schemes. The blue undertone is most visible in daylight and recedes under warm artificial light sources.
