Sherwin Williams

Navajo White

SW 6126

Navajo White is a warm off-white with blended beige and yellow undertones that produce a creamy, wheat-toned appearance on walls. At an LRV of 72, it reflects substantial light while retaining enough pigment to feel warmer than a standard white. It performs consistently in living rooms, bedrooms, and kitchens, particularly in spaces with natural wood trim.

Navajo White works well alongside Sherwin-Williams Accessible Beige, Dover White, Latte, and Urbane Bronze, providing a reliable warm neutral base for traditional and transitional interiors.

Navajo White 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.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
