What color is Sherwin Williams Arugula?
Sherwin Williams Arugula SW 6446 is a deep, muted green with an earthy olive cast. Its low brightness gives it substantial visual weight, making it especially effective on cabinetry, built-ins, doors, or a dining room wall. In bright natural light, the green reads clearer and more botanical; in lower light, it settles into a darker, more grounded shade. Pair Arugula with warm whites, natural oak, aged brass, and tan leather to highlight its yellow-green undertone. For a crisper contrast, use it alongside soft charcoal or dark bronze accents.

LRV of Arugula
Arugula has an LRV of 9.86% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 9.86%, 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.
