Sherwin Williams

Rushing River

SW 7746

Rushing River is a medium-depth greige with warm beige and gray tones balanced by subtle earthy undertones. At an LRV of 34, it absorbs more light than it reflects, placing it in the medium-dark range that adds visual weight to walls without closing in a room. This color works well in living areas and bedrooms with sufficient natural light.

It pairs naturally with Sherwin-Williams Alabaster for contrast, Shoji White for soft transitions, Iron Ore for deep accents, Rosemary for muted green layering, and Blustery Sky for a cooler complementary balance.
