What color is Sherwin Williams Brandywine?
Sherwin Williams Brandywine SW 7710 is a medium-depth earthy brown with clear warm orange and clay-like undertones. Its #a56c4a color value gives it a sun-baked, slightly muted appearance rather than a dark chocolate or red-heavy brown. In bright daylight, Brandywine can read as a warm terracotta brown, while lower light brings out its grounded, deeper ochre-brown character. It suits dining rooms, dens, and entryways where a stronger wall color can add visual weight without feeling nearly black. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm beige upholstery, aged brass, natural oak, and woven leather for a cohesive palette.

LRV of Brandywine
Brandywine has an LRV of 19.14% 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 19.14%, 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.
