What color is Sherwin Williams Baguette?
Sherwin Williams Baguette SW 6123 is a medium warm tan with muted golden-brown undertones. Its earthy depth keeps it from reading like a pale beige, while the softened saturation prevents it from becoming overly orange. In bright daylight, Baguette can show more of its sun-warmed sandy character; under incandescent or evening light, it tends to look deeper and browner. It suits dining rooms, entryways, and living-room walls where a grounded neutral is wanted, and it can also bring warmth to wood cabinetry or a covered exterior. Pair this shade with creamy off-whites, deep olive greens, charcoal accents, and natural materials such as walnut, leather, and woven grasscloth.

LRV of Baguette
Baguette has an LRV of 30.74% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 30.74%, 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.
