What color is Sherwin Williams Caribbean Coral?

Sherwin Williams Caribbean Coral SW 2854 is a muted coral with a warm, earthy cast that sits between clay pink and soft terracotta. Its #be795e color value gives it medium depth and restrained saturation, so it reads less sugary than a bright coral. In direct daylight, the peachy warmth is more noticeable, while lower or warmer light can bring out its browned, clay-like side. It suits dining rooms, powder rooms, and sunlit living areas, and can also make a grounded accent on interior doors or painted cabinetry. Pair Caribbean Coral with creamy off-whites, warm taupe, natural oak, woven cane, and aged brass for a layered, material-focused look.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 25.31%, 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.
