Neutral Ground Sherwin-Williams · SW 7568 LRV 58
Neutral Ground review: Sherwin-Williams SW 7568
warm tan-beige.
A warm tan-beige best suited to traditional living rooms and homes already built around wood tones; it can look dated paired with cool grays or black-and-white palettes.
Neutral Ground 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 Neutral Ground's warmth and can make it read flatter and slightly gray.
East light Morning east light is warm and golden, so Neutral Ground 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 Neutral Ground'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.
What to pair Neutral Ground with
- Cream or off-white trim, not a stark white which fights its warmth
- Warm wood furniture and brass fixtures
