What color is Sherwin Williams Lotus Petal?
Sherwin Williams Lotus Petal SW 9697 is a very light, warm blush-beige with a soft peach-pink cast. Its high lightness keeps the color airy on broad walls, while the muted saturation prevents it from reading like a candy pink. In daylight, Lotus Petal can show its delicate rosy warmth more clearly; under warmer bulbs, it may lean closer to a creamy nude. It is especially well suited to bedrooms, nurseries, powder rooms, or a softly colored ceiling. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, natural linen, terracotta accents, or aged brass for a grounded, layered look.

LRV of Lotus Petal
Lotus Petal has an LRV of 76.69% and refers to Off‑White 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 76.69%, 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.
