Expert Commentary on Color Theory

Westchester Gray SW 2849 is part of the Sherwin-Williams Historic Collection, but it translates perfectly to modern Pacific Northwest architecture.

Technical Product Note

For this 98074 area home, we utilized Sherwin-Williams Emerald® Exterior. This product is essential for darker grays like Westchester to prevent surfactant leaching and fading under the intense UV cycles and humidity typical of the Sammamish plateau.
