What color is Sherwin Williams Koi Pond?
Sherwin Williams Koi Pond SW 7727 is a muted, light-to-medium beige with a noticeable khaki-olive cast. Its softened yellow-brown undertone keeps it warmer than a true gray, while the subdued saturation prevents it from reading overly golden. In bright natural light, Koi Pond can show more of its earthy olive influence; under warm bulbs, it tends to look sandier and more beige. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a grounded neutral is wanted, and can also give painted cabinetry a weathered, natural look. Pair it with warm white trim, aged brass, medium oak, woven linen, and deeper olive or charcoal accents.

LRV of Koi Pond
Koi Pond has an LRV of 44.27% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 44.27%, 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.
