Sherwin Williams

French Moire

SW 9056

French Moire is a cool, muted blue carrying distinct gray undertones that pull it toward a desaturated teal reading on the wall. With an LRV of 47, it sits in the mid-range of the light reflectance scale, making it functional in bedrooms, bathrooms, and living areas with moderate natural light. The gray base keeps it from reading overly saturated, lending a quiet, grounded quality.

It coordinates well with Alabaster for trim, Creamy on adjacent walls, Stardew as a complementary accent, Misty for tonal layering, and Iron Ore for contrast on doors or cabinetry.
