What color is Sherwin Williams Cocoa Whip?
Sherwin Williams Cocoa Whip SW 9084 is a muted medium taupe with a noticeable brown-beige base and a soft gray cast. Its low-saturation character keeps it from reading overly tan, giving walls a grounded, gently weathered appearance. In bright natural light, Cocoa Whip can look like a softened beige-taupe, while warmer evening lighting draws out more of its brown warmth. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a deeper neutral is needed without the weight of a dark brown. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal accents, aged brass, linen upholstery, or natural oak for a layered, earthy palette.
LRV of Cocoa Whip
Cocoa Whip has an LRV of 28.27% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 28.27%, 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.
