What color is Sherwin Williams Dry Dock?
Sherwin Williams Dry Dock SW 7502 is a muted medium taupe with a noticeable brown base and soft gray restraint. Its #a18d7d color value gives it an earthy, low-saturation appearance that reads warmer in afternoon sun and slightly more subdued under cooler artificial light. Dry Dock is well suited to living room or bedroom walls where a darker neutral can add definition without looking overly heavy. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal accents, aged brass, linen upholstery, and natural oak for a grounded interior palette. On cabinetry or built-ins, this shade can bring a quietly weathered look alongside pale stone counters and warm white walls.

LRV of Dry Dock
Dry Dock has an LRV of 28% 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%, 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.
