What makes SW Extra White a popular white?
Extra White is one of them the most popular white color there. Many of these white people have names that lead you to believe they are the best, brightest, or “whitest” white people. You’ll see names like Extra, Super, Ultra, Pure, and even Simply White to sort through (we’ll compare all of them in more detail later). And guess what? None of these are actually the brightest whites available! Don’t worry, we’ll talk about that color too.
So what makes Extra White such a good choice if it’s not really the whitest? Well, for your home you usually want whites that are slightly muted and have undertones that complement the other colors in your space. This prevents the walls from looking too stark, cold or blindingly bright. So the popularity of Extra White comes from the fact that it really isn’t that extra.
It’s a classic white color that looks bright, clean and colorless in your space without going overboard on being harsh or sterile. It’s a safe and strong choice loved by designers, DIYers and home builders alike.
