What color is Sherwin Williams Foothills?
Sherwin Williams Foothills SW 7514 is a muted medium-depth brown-gray with a noticeable warm cast. Its low-saturation character keeps it from reading overly tan or heavily brown, giving walls a grounded, earthy appearance. In cooler daylight, Foothills can appear more gray and weathered, while warm lamps bring forward its soft brown undertones. It suits living rooms, studies, and dining areas where a darker neutral can add definition without looking stark. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal accents, black metal, natural oak, or worn leather for a layered, material-focused interior.

LRV of Foothills
Foothills has an LRV of 18.21% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 18.21%, 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.
