How they read
In their own wordsExtra White is a bright, slightly cool white — the closest Sherwin-Williams gets to a gallery wall. At LRV 86 it is crisp and reflective, with a faint blue-grey lean that keeps it clean rather than creamy. It is the white for architecture: plaster reliefs, coffered ceilings, a bank of steel windows.
Kashmir is a Lime Wash colour from Portola Paints & Glazes in Los Angeles, which describes it simply as a "perfectly balanced old world white". It is also available as colour-matched paint for ceilings, doors and trim.
