What color is Sherwin Williams Framboise?
Sherwin Williams Framboise SW 6566 is a deep berry-toned shade with a clear red-violet cast and a gently muted finish. Its mid-dark value gives it enough weight for a dining room, powder room, or bedroom accent wall without reading as nearly black. In bright daylight, Framboise can show more of its raspberry-red side, while lower or warmer lighting tends to bring out its wine and plum notes. Pair it with soft cream, dusty blush, charcoal, or deep navy for contrast, and use brass, walnut, or blackened metal to reinforce its richness. This color is especially effective on cabinetry, doors, or a single enveloping wall where its saturation can be appreciated up close.

LRV of Framboise
Framboise has an LRV of 7.59% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 7.59%, 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.
