What color is Sherwin Williams Invigorate?

Sherwin Williams Invigorate SW 6886 is a vivid raspberry pink with a noticeable red base and a faint cool, berry-like edge. It is unapologetically bright, reading energetic and almost neon in strong daylight, while warm bulbs can pull it a little closer to coral-red. This shade is usually strongest as an accent: try it on a powder room vanity, the back of open shelving, a front door, or one wall in a creative workspace. Crisp warm white keeps the look clean, while pale oak, brass, navy, and deep green give the color something grounded to play against. In a north-facing room, its cool pink cast may stand out more, so plenty of warm wood or creamy textiles can keep the space from feeling too sharp.

LRV of Invigorate

Invigorate has an LRV of 28.74% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 28.74%, 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.
