What color is Sherwin Williams Morning Sun?
Sherwin Williams Morning Sun SW 6672 is a pale, creamy beige with a clear warm yellow-peach cast. Its high lightness keeps it airy on broad walls, while the muted saturation prevents it from reading as bright yellow. In daylight, Morning Sun can appear softly sunlit and lightly buttery; under warm lamps, its beige and peach notes become more noticeable. It suits kitchens, breakfast nooks, living rooms, and bedrooms where a gentle warm neutral is wanted without the heaviness of tan. Pair it with soft white trim, natural oak, woven fibers, muted clay accents, or dusty blue-gray textiles for contrast.

LRV of Morning Sun
Morning Sun has an LRV of 80.26% 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 80.26%, 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.
