Sherwin Williams

Simple White

SW 7021

Simple White is an off-white from Sherwin-Williams with a hex value of #DFD9D2 and an LRV of 70, reflecting substantial light while carrying warm undertones with a faint purple-gray note that prevents it from appearing yellowish or stark. This undertone structure makes it read as a warm neutral white rather than a cool white. The color is commonly used on walls, ceilings, and full-room applications in both traditional and contemporary settings.

It pairs with Sherwin-Williams Accessible Beige for adjacent walls, Aesthetic White for a tonal scheme, Chinchilla as a muted accent, and Grizzle Gray for deeper contrast.
