Sherwin Williams

Modest White

SW 6084

Modest White is a warm off-white with beige and peach undertones, carrying an LRV of 74. The peach influence gives this color a slightly flushed warmth that distinguishes it from standard cream whites, particularly noticeable on south-facing walls. It performs well in bedrooms, living rooms, and transitional spaces where softness is needed without stark contrast.

Modest White coordinates naturally with SW Likeable Sand, SW Doeskin, SW Pure White, SW Toasty, and SW Chelsea Mauve. It reads warmer under incandescent light and more neutral under balanced daylight conditions.
