What color is Sherwin Williams Cerise?

Sherwin Williams Cerise SW 6580 is a deep berry-red with a noticeable rosy magenta cast rather than an orange-red direction. Its mid-dark value gives it visual weight, while the saturated color keeps it from reading brown or muted. In bright natural light, Cerise shows more of its raspberry tone; at night or in low light, it settles into a darker wine-like red. It makes a strong accent wall in a dining room, powder room, or bedroom, and can also give built-in cabinetry a dramatic finish. Pair it with warm white trim, pale blush, charcoal, or natural walnut, brass, and blackened metal for contrast.

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 9.65%, 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.
