The floor finish is the reference
Judge Navajo White against your actual wood finish, not a generic wood species label. The starting material direction here is cream tile and warm wood. Navajo White OC-95 is a lighter reference than the same-name Sherwin-Williams color and must stay attached to its own brand.
Warm wood and cream tile can make a coherent off-white setting, provided the actual OC-95 sample agrees with the fixed tile.
Test the dominant wood color, not one grain line
View Navajo White vertically where it meets the installed timber. The floor can make a light white look warmer by comparison, but that does not establish a universal undertone. Include the existing trim so the wall is approved between both fixed neighbors rather than against wood alone.
Navajo White has an LRV of 78.26; Sherwin-Williams Navajo White SW-6126 is 72. The difference is 6.26 points, with Navajo White returning more light under the reference measurement.
The condition for keeping Navajo White
Compare the authentic OC-95 sample to the tile and keep the Sherwin-Williams version out of the same-name assumption.
Keep the Navajo White board vertical at the floor edge. A match to one pale grain line can misrepresent the dominant color across the installed floor. Judge the broad timber background from standing height. If the floor will be refinished, repeat the comparison with the approved new stain sample before ordering the wall paint. The coordinating color options covers that related choice. Before ordering samples, compare room-planning features in the paint color visualizer roundup.
