Sherwin Williams

Memorable Rose

SW 6311

Memorable Rose is a warm muted red with pink undertones, carrying an LRV of 33 that positions it in the medium-depth range. The red base is softened by a pink cast, producing a dusty rose tone that avoids reading as saturated or bold. It is well suited for accent walls, dining rooms, and bedrooms where warmth without intensity is the goal.

Sherwin-Williams Alabaster, Agreeable Gray, Rosy Outlook, and Quaint Peche coordinate naturally. Under cooler north-facing light it may appear slightly more mauve, while warm lighting draws out its red-pink warmth more prominently.
