What color is Sherwin Williams Fading Rose?

Sherwin Williams Fading Rose SW 6296 is a light, muted rose with a gently grayed cast that keeps the pink from reading sugary or bright. Its soft red undertone gives it warmth, while the subdued color value lets it sit quietly on larger wall surfaces. In daylight, Fading Rose can appear like a pale blush; under warmer evening bulbs, its rosy character becomes more noticeable. It suits bedrooms, powder rooms, and dressing areas, especially alongside creamy whites, natural oak, linen upholstery, and brushed brass. For contrast, pair this shade with charcoal accents, deep plum textiles, or a softly weathered green.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 55.16%, 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.
