Sherwin Williams

Polar Bear

SW 7564

Polar Bear is a warm off-white from Sherwin-Williams with beige and cream undertones that prevent it from reading as stark or cool. At an LRV of 74, it reflects a high amount of light while retaining enough warmth to feel softer than a pure white, making it suitable for whole-house applications, trim, ceilings, and rooms with limited natural light. It does not carry noticeable yellow or pink casts under most conditions.

It works well alongside Sherwin-Williams Accessible Beige and Natural Tan in a layered neutral scheme, while Pewter Green offers deeper contrast and Spiced Cider adds an earthy accent.
