What color is Sherwin Williams Chatura Gray?

Sherwin Williams Chatura Gray SW 9169 is a muted, medium-light gray with a noticeable warm beige cast. Its #a09287 color value gives it a softly earthy appearance, sitting closer to a weathered taupe than a crisp, blue-based gray. In bright daylight, Chatura Gray can read as a gentle warm gray, while lower or warmer artificial light may bring out more of its beige-brown character. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a grounded neutral is preferred over stark white or cool gray. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal details, natural oak, linen upholstery, and aged brass for a layered, material-focused interior.

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 29.89%, 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.
