“Alabaster represents a straightforward and necessary shift to mindfulness. It provides an oasis of calmness, spirituality and ‘less is more’ visual relief. Alabaster is neither stark nor overly warm, but rather an understated and alluring white.”
Jackie Jordan, Sherwin Williams director of color marketing.
One thing that makes this color so great is its crisp and clean appearance. It is also an easy color to decorate with because it matches everything, however, using it intentionally is important. For example, if you love contrast then white is perfect to pull off that look but if you are a lover of neutrals then alabaster might be just the ticket to keep it from becoming mundane.
