Extra White review: Sherwin-Williams SW 7006
Extra White in real light
Same sample board, four compass directions: this is the standardized shot list every color on this site gets, so you can compare across colors and not just across one photographer's living room. Photos for this color are still being shot; the notes below are what to expect from the color's undertone.
North light North light is cool and indirect all day, so it mutes Extra White's warmth and can make it read flatter and slightly gray.
East light Morning east light is warm and golden, so Extra White looks brightest and warmest early in the day, then cools and flattens by afternoon as the light moves west.
South light South-facing rooms get the most direct sun all day, which pushes Extra White's warmth further, sometimes past what the chip suggests.
West light Afternoon west light is warm and can run intense right at sunset, then goes flat and cool in the morning before the sun reaches that side of the house.
crisp warm-leaning white, cooler and cleaner than Alabaster.
Cooler and cleaner than Alabaster or Greek Villa at LRV 86; a common exterior trim white and a good choice for kitchens that want brightness without any yellow cast.
What to pair Extra White with
- Black trim or fixtures for a crisp modern look
- Cool wood floors, which keep the palette from feeling flat
