What color is Sherwin Williams Ambitious Amber?
Sherwin Williams Ambitious Amber SW 6366 is a light, sun-warmed amber with a creamy golden base and a gentle peachy cast. Its pale value keeps the color airy rather than heavy, while the noticeable warmth gives walls more presence than a standard beige. In daylight, Ambitious Amber can read as a soft honeyed neutral; under warm evening bulbs, its golden-orange notes become more apparent. It suits dining rooms, kitchens, hallways, and living spaces that need warmth without moving into a deep ochre. Pair it with soft white trim, natural oak, woven fibers, terracotta accents, or muted olive green for an earthy, layered palette.
LRV of Ambitious Amber
Ambitious Amber has an LRV of 63.66% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 63.66%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
