Jordan in a coastal room

Jordan is a very light vinyl tile from the Shaw Floors Paragon Tile Plus line, with a soft greige undertone (measured from its own picture: LRV 57). Here it is paired with High Reflective White walls, Greek Villa trim, and Still Water as the deep note, chosen by the numbers.

Hue

A greige: soft gray with a little warmth. LRV is light reflectance value, the share of light a surface sends back, the same scale paint makers print on every chip: 0 is black, 100 is white.

Jordan has a gentle movement from board to board (a spread of 2.8 in L*): calm, but not flat.

Light reflectance of the floor and its paintsOn a scale from 0 (black) to 100 (white), the floor sits at 57. Walls at 93. Trim at 84. Deep note at 10. The shaded band is within 30 points of the floor, where a wall would blur into it.0255075100Deep note 10Floor 57Trim 84Walls 93

The shaded band is within 30 points of the floor. A wall inside it blurs into the floor; BS 8300 asks for at least 30 points between surfaces that meet.

Wood, rugs and metals

Contrast, not a match.

Wood furniture

A step darker: a light natural woodAbout 19 points darker than Jordan in L* (61 against 80), far enough to read as a choice. Like our Silvered Gray stain sample.
A step lighter: black or painted piecesJordan is lighter than any wood stain we photographed (L* 80), so contrast comes from black, painted or upholstered pieces.

Rugs and fabric

Tone on tone: pewter5 in chroma, half the warmth of Jordan (10), and 34 points darker in L*.
Across the wheel: slate blueHue 261°, straight across the color wheel from the 81° of Jordan, softened to balance it.
Grounding: taupeA deep note at L* 50, 30 points from the 80 of Jordan, so a rug keeps its edge.

Metals

Polished nickelA bright nickel with a touch of warmth, for the greige undertone of Jordan (chroma 10.1).
Champagne bronzeA warm metal that agrees with the greige undertone of Jordan (hue 81°).
Brushed nickelA soft satin nickel, quieter than chrome, for the greige of Jordan.

Questions

About Jordan and color, answered from the numbers above.

What wall color goes with Jordan flooring?

High Reflective White (Sherwin-Williams SW 7757, LRV 92.7): a warm white or greige in the same soft family as Jordan (hue 110° against its 81°). It sits 36 LRV points from the floor (LRV 57), more than the 30 points that keep a wall and a floor reading apart. Or Simply White (Benjamin Moore OC-117, LRV 89.5).

What trim and ceiling color goes with Jordan?

Greek Villa (Sherwin-Williams SW 7551, LRV 84.2): 28 points over Jordan in LRV and warm enough (chroma 5.3) to read white, not blue, beside its greige undertone.

What accent color goes with Jordan?

Still Water (Sherwin-Williams SW 6223, LRV 10.1): deep and quiet, 47 points darker than Jordan in LRV, a frame for a greige floor. Lower cabinets or an island in Still Water, uppers and trim in Greek Villa. The floor at LRV 57 sits between the two (10 and 84).

What wood furniture goes with Jordan?

Contrast, not a match: a step darker: a light natural wood (like our Silvered Gray stain sample), or a step lighter: black or painted pieces.

How do I put a room together around Jordan?

Living room: High Reflective White walls and Greek Villa trim, a pewter rug in a flat weave on Jordan, slate blue pillows, black or painted side tables. Kitchen: Greek Villa cabinets with an island in Still Water, polished nickel hardware, Jordan underfoot.

Is Jordan a light or a dark floor?

Very light: LRV 57 and L* 80, measured from its own picture, with a soft greige undertone. At LRV 57, Jordan is very light: it bounces light back into the room, suits north facing rooms, basements and small rooms, and shows dark grit more than lint.

What colors should I avoid with Jordan?

Walls at the lightness of Jordan: Worldly Gray (Sherwin-Williams SW 7043, LRV 57.2) sits within a point of its LRV of 57, so wall and floor would blur into one. Stark blue whites everywhere: a greige floor like Jordan turns muddy beside them. Keep the whites a little warm.

The room it suits

Light, size and wear, from the floor's own record.

At LRV 57, Jordan is very light: it bounces light back into the room, suits north facing rooms, basements and small rooms, and shows dark grit more than lint.

At 12 inches a tile, a 12 foot room is about 12 tiles across.

Jordan is waterproof, so it belongs in kitchens, baths, mudrooms and basements as well as living spaces.

From the floor's own record

What only this floor's data can say.

One of our most-asked-for floors: estimated 4 times since 2023.

Jordan is lighter than 96 percent of the 1,204 vinyl floors we carry, measured the same way, and warmer than 31 percent of them.

A step lighter in the same line: White OnyxLRV 60, measured the same way, against 57 for Jordan.
A step darker in the same line: PearlLRV 51, measured the same way, against 57 for Jordan.

The same look in real wood: Waterfront, Anderson Tuftex Coast To Coast, only 2.0 apart in color (CIEDE2000).

To get this color on an oak floor you already have, the nearest of our stains is Country White (7.9 apart, CIEDE2000, from our own photographs on red oak).

How we chose

Paint names, codes, hex and LRV as Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore publish them (each color links to its page).

BS 8300-2:2018 asks for a difference of at least 30 LRV points between adjacent surfaces, such as a floor and a wall, so the surfaces read apart.

The floor measured from its own picture in CIELAB (D65); the wood tones from our own photographs of 37 stains on oak.

A picture's lightness depends a little on how it was lit, so the floor's LRV is read from the evenly lit field the visualizer lays and rounded. See the real floor before you choose paint: visit the showroom, or ask for a free measure and estimate.
