What color is Sherwin Williams Dark Auburn?
Sherwin Williams Dark Auburn SW 6034 is a deep red-brown with wine-colored undertones, closer to aged mahogany or dried cherries than a bright brick red. It reads earthy and weighty on the wall, especially in lower light, where the brown base becomes more pronounced. In daylight, its burgundy cast is easier to see; under warm lamps, it can look richer and more red. Use it for a dining room, library, powder room, or built-in cabinetry when you want a darker surface with more character than charcoal or navy. Warm white trim, walnut furniture, antique brass, natural linen, and dark green accents keep the palette grounded.

LRV of Dark Auburn
Dark Auburn has an LRV of 4.98% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 4.98%, 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.
