What color is Sherwin Williams Palisade?

Sherwin Williams Palisade SW 7635 is a muted mid-tone greige with a noticeable warm, taupe-leaning cast. Its soft blend of beige and gray keeps it from reading overly yellow, while the slightly dusty quality gives walls a grounded, low-contrast look. In bright daylight, Palisade can appear lighter and more beige; under warm lamps, its rosy-brown undertone becomes more apparent. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where white trim, natural oak, linen upholstery, and aged brass details can add definition. Use it on cabinetry or an exterior only when paired with crisp off-whites and darker charcoal or brown accents to keep the overall scheme from becoming too muted.

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 35.16%, 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.
