Sherwin Williams

Morning Fog

SW 6255

Morning Fog is a cool medium-light gray carrying distinct blue undertones that become more apparent under natural daylight. With an LRV of 42, it sits in the mid-range of light reflectance, providing enough depth to anchor a room without absorbing too much light. It works well in bathrooms, hallways, and open-plan living spaces where a composed neutral is needed.

For coordinated schemes, consider pairing it with Sherwin-Williams Pure White, Agreeable Gray, Naval, Alabaster, or Uncertain Gray.
