Sherwin Williams

Pineapple Cream

SW 1668

Pineapple Cream is a light, warm yellow from Sherwin-Williams with soft green-beige undertones that keep it from reading too saturated. Its LRV of 82 places it in the high-reflectance range, meaning it will bounce a significant amount of light back into a room and help smaller spaces feel more open. This color is well suited for kitchens, dining areas, and hallways where consistent warmth and brightness are needed.

It pairs naturally with Sherwin-Williams Creamy and Lemon Meringue as tonal neighbors, while Softened Green provides a cool-leaning accent, and Naval or Urbane Bronze can serve as deeper anchoring tones.
