Sherwin Williams

Original White

SW 7077

Original White (SW 7077) is an off-white with purple undertones, carrying an LRV of 74. At this high reflectance, it reads as a soft, barely-tinted white that leans slightly cool due to the lavender cast in its base. The purple undertone becomes most apparent when placed next to warmer whites.

It functions effectively as a wall or trim color in bedrooms, living areas, and bathrooms. Pair it with Extra White (SW 7006) for a tonal trim pairing. It coordinates with Sensitive Tint (SW 6267), Passive (SW 7064), Ellie Gray (SW 7650), and Silver Strand (SW 7057).
