What color is Sherwin Williams Grizzle Gray?
Sherwin Williams Grizzle Gray SW 7068 is a deep, muted gray with green undertones that keep it from reading flat or charcoal-black. In bright daylight, the green cast is more noticeable, while north-facing rooms can make it appear cooler and nearly slate-like. At night, especially under warm bulbs, it settles into a softer, earthier dark gray. It has enough depth for a study, dining room, or dramatic living-room walls, and it also looks grounded on kitchen cabinetry or exterior trim. Pair it with warm white walls, natural oak, aged brass, tan leather, and pale stone to bring out its organic side; dark green and terracotta accents also sit naturally beside it.
LRV of Grizzle Gray
Grizzle Gray has an LRV of 12.46% 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 12.46%, 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.
