Sherwin Williams

Night Owl

SW 7061

Night Owl is a muted cool-leaning neutral with a green-gray cast and an LRV of 13, placing it in the deep value range. It reads as a sophisticated dark neutral suited to accent walls, exterior trim, cabinetry, and studies where a low-light atmosphere is functional. The green undertone becomes more apparent next to warm whites.

Night Owl works well alongside Sherwin-Williams Alabaster for trim, Accessible Beige on adjacent lighter walls, Evergreen Fog for a tonal green pairing, and Pure White where sharper contrast is needed on moldings.

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.
