Sherwin Williams

Relaxed Khaki

SW 6149

Sherwin-Williams Relaxed Khaki is a warm, muted beige with yellow-based undertones and a slight gray cast that keeps it from reading too golden. Its Light Reflectance Value of 50 places it at the midpoint of the reflectance scale, providing balanced brightness that works in most lighting conditions. This neutral tone is commonly used in living rooms, hallways, and open-plan spaces where a warm but subdued wall color is needed.

Relaxed Khaki pairs with Sherwin-Williams Dover White and Shoji White for a lighter tonal scheme, while Sable and Foothills offer deeper earth-toned accents, and Comfort Gray provides a cool complementary contrast.
