City Loft Sherwin-Williams ยท SW 7631 LRV 46

City Loft review: Sherwin-Williams SW 7631

balanced greige.

A true middle-ground greige, LRV 46, that works as a main wall color in living and dining rooms without leaning noticeably warm or cool.

City Loft 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 even and indirect, showing City Loft close to its swatch value without much shift.
East light Morning east light is warm and golden, so City Loft looks brightest and warmest early in the day, then cools and flattens by afternoon as the light moves west.
South light South light is bright and warm most of the day, which can soften City Loft's cooler undertone without erasing it.
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.
