What color is Sherwin Williams Honed Soapstone?
Sherwin Williams Honed Soapstone SW 9126 is a muted, mid-tone gray-beige with a noticeable earthy cast. Its softened khaki and taupe notes keep it warmer than a straightforward gray, while the low saturation prevents it from reading overly brown. In bright daylight, this color can appear like a quiet weathered stone; lower or warmer lighting tends to bring out its beige side. It is well suited to living room walls, bedrooms, hallways, or painted cabinetry where a grounded neutral is wanted without a stark contrast. Pair Honed Soapstone with creamy off-whites, charcoal accents, black hardware, natural oak, linen, and stone surfaces for a restrained, material-focused interior.

LRV of Honed Soapstone
Honed Soapstone has an LRV of 31.31% 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 31.31%, 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.
