What color is Sherwin Williams Delicious Melon?
Sherwin Williams Delicious Melon SW 6653 is a light, sun-warmed peach with a soft creamy cast rather than a sharp orange edge. Its golden-pink undertone gives it a gentle warmth that reads especially well in rooms with natural daylight. In brighter light, Delicious Melon can look airy and lightly apricot; at night, it takes on a cozier, more muted peach appearance. It suits breakfast nooks, children’s rooms, powder rooms, and accent walls where a pale neutral would feel too plain. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, or muted sage and dusty blue accents for contrast.
LRV of Delicious Melon
Delicious Melon has an LRV of 63.05% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 63.05%, 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.
