What color is Sherwin Williams Eye Catching?
Sherwin Williams Eye Catching SW 6914 is a rich golden yellow with a mustard-ochre cast that keeps it grounded rather than citrusy. Its warmth is clear in daylight, where the yellow reads bright and substantial, while evening lighting can bring out a deeper, honeyed appearance. Eye Catching is especially effective as an accent wall, painted door, kitchen island, or on cabinetry where its saturated color can be used in a defined area. Pair it with soft cream, warm white, charcoal, deep blue, or natural walnut for contrast that does not compete with its golden tone. Matte black hardware and aged brass both suit this shade, though brass will make its warmth feel even more pronounced.

LRV of Eye Catching
Eye Catching has an LRV of 50.06% 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 50.06%, 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.
