Sherwin Williams

Patience

SW 7555

Patience is a warm off-white from Sherwin-Williams with beige and muted peach undertones, shown in its hex value (#E2D3BF) which has a clear warm bias in the red-yellow channels. At an LRV of 67, it reflects a high amount of light while retaining enough pigment to read as a tinted neutral rather than a true white. It suits whole-house wall applications, particularly where limited natural light would make cooler whites appear flat.

It coordinates with Sherwin-Williams Accessible Beige for deeper transitions, Wool Skein for room continuity, Alabaster for trim, and Urbane Bronze as a dark accent.
