What color is Sherwin Williams Full Bloom?
Sherwin Williams Full Bloom SW 9700 is a medium, warm coral-red with a softened terracotta cast. Its rosy red base is tempered by earthy brown warmth, giving it more weight than a pastel pink while keeping it brighter than a traditional brick tone. In strong daylight, Full Bloom can read as a lively sun-warmed coral; lower or warmer lighting brings out its clay-like depth. It makes a confident choice for a powder room, dining room, or an accent wall behind a bed, and it can also give painted cabinetry a memorable focal point. Pair it with creamy off-whites, natural oak, woven grasscloth, and muted olive or dusty blue accents for contrast that feels grounded rather than overly sweet.
LRV of Full Bloom
Full Bloom has an LRV of 26.03% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 26.03%, 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.
