What color is Sherwin Williams Bold Brick?
Sherwin Williams Bold Brick SW 6327 is a muted brick red with a noticeable brown cast, giving it an earthy, grounded look rather than a bright primary-red presence. Its medium depth and softened saturation make it especially effective for dining rooms, entryways, powder rooms, or a single fireplace wall. In direct daylight, this color reads as a warm weathered red, while lower or north-facing light can bring forward its deeper russet-brown side. Pair Bold Brick with warm off-whites, creamy beige, charcoal, or deep olive, along with natural oak, aged brass, and matte black details. It also has enough weight for painted cabinetry or an exterior front door when a richer, more traditional accent is wanted.

LRV of Bold Brick
Bold Brick has an LRV of 14.96% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 14.96%, 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.
