What color is Sherwin Williams Honeycomb?
Sherwin Williams Honeycomb SW 6375 is a warm, mid-tone golden ochre with a clear orange-gold cast. Its depth keeps it from reading as pale yellow, giving walls a sun-baked, earthy presence instead. In bright daylight, Honeycomb can look brighter and more golden, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its richer amber tone. It suits dining rooms, kitchens, mudrooms, or a front door where a stronger warm color feels appropriate. Pair it with creamy off-whites, deep brown wood, terracotta tile, or muted olive accents for a grounded palette.

LRV of Honeycomb
Honeycomb has an LRV of 37.44% 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 37.44%, 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.
