What color is Sherwin Williams Navel?
Sherwin Williams Navel SW 6887 is a clear, sunlit orange with a ripe citrus character rather than a rusty or brown-leaning cast. It reads bold and warm on walls, especially in rooms with generous daylight, while warm evening lamps can bring out its deeper golden notes. Navel is usually strongest as an accent: try it on a front door, a kitchen island, dining-room built-ins, or the back wall of open shelving. Pair it with creamy warm white, natural oak, terracotta tile, woven linen, and aged brass to keep the look grounded. For more contrast, deep navy or dark leafy green gives this bright orange a crisp, slightly vintage edge.

LRV of Navel
Navel has an LRV of 34.63% 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 34.63%, 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.
