What color is Sherwin Williams Connected Gray?
Sherwin Williams Connected Gray SW 6165 is a muted mid-tone gray with a noticeable warm, earthy cast. Its #898473 color value gives it a softened blend of gray, beige, and subtle olive-khaki undertones rather than a crisp blue-gray appearance. In daylight, Connected Gray can read as a grounded neutral, while lower or warmer artificial light may draw out its brownish, green-leaning warmth. It suits living room walls, studies, mudrooms, and exterior siding where a deeper neutral is wanted without going charcoal. Pair it with creamy off-whites, weathered wood, black metal, linen upholstery, or deeper olive and brown accents.

LRV of Connected Gray
Connected Gray has an LRV of 23.08% 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 23.08%, 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.
