What color is Sherwin Williams Exciting Orange?
Sherwin Williams Exciting Orange SW 6647 is a light, sun-warmed orange with a clear peachy cast rather than a deep or fiery look. Its #f0b07a color value gives it a soft, mid-light appearance that can read as apricot in warm daylight and a little more muted under lower indoor lighting. Exciting Orange is well suited to an accent wall, a breakfast nook, or painted furniture where its warm color can be appreciated without taking over the room. Pair it with creamy whites, pale sand tones, natural oak, rattan, or brushed brass for a grounded palette. On a front door or covered exterior detail, this shade brings noticeable color while staying lighter and less intense than a traditional vivid orange.

LRV of Exciting Orange
Exciting Orange has an LRV of 51.21% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half 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 51.21%, 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.
