Sherwin Williams

Sand Trap

SW 6066

Sand Trap is a warm neutral beige from Sherwin-Williams with noticeable red and brown undertones that give it an earthy, grounded character. At an LRV of 40, it reflects a moderate amount of light, making it suitable for living rooms, hallways, and bedrooms where a warm mid-tone wall color is needed. The slight pink cast in its base keeps it from reading as flat or dull.

It coordinates well with Sherwin-Williams Accessible Beige for a tonal pairing, Shoji White as a lighter trim option, Urbane Bronze for deeper contrast, and Creamy or Alabaster on ceilings and adjacent walls.
