Sherwin Williams

Tony Taupe

SW 7038

Tony Taupe is a muted, medium-depth neutral from Sherwin-Williams built on a brown-gray base with warm beige undertones. At an LRV of 37, it reads as a solid mid-tone that can anchor a room without darkening it significantly. The warmth leans slightly toward yellow-beige but avoids skewing overtly yellow or red, remaining balanced under varying light sources.

It works in living rooms, bedrooms, and exterior trim. Tony Taupe coordinates with Sherwin-Williams Alabaster and Shoji White for lighter contrast, and Keystone Gray, Urbane Bronze, and Balanced Beige for layered schemes.
