Sherwin Williams

Interface Tan

SW 6059

Interface Tan SW 6413 is a warm tan with a red undertone that separates it from yellow-based buff tones. At an LRV of 40, it sits in the mid-light range, providing warmth without excessive darkness. It reads well in dining rooms, entryways, and transitional spaces where a grounded warm neutral is needed.

The red undertone becomes more visible under warm lighting and on large surfaces. It pairs effectively with Sherwin-Williams Shoji White, Reddish Brass, Urbane Bronze, and Toasty. Adjacent cool-toned surfaces will accentuate the warm red cast.

Interface Tan in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
