What color is Sherwin Williams Pennywise?

Sherwin Williams Pennywise SW 6349 is a medium-deep terracotta brown with a clear orange-red cast. Its earthy warmth gives it enough richness for a dining room, den, or front door, while the brown base keeps it from reading as a bright clay orange. In direct sunlight, Pennywise can show more of its baked-orange character; lower or cooler light draws out its deeper russet-brown side. Pair it with creamy off-whites, sand-colored textiles, dark walnut, aged brass, or muted olive accents for a grounded palette. It has the presence to cover all four walls in a room with good natural light, but it is especially effective on cabinetry, built-ins, and exterior trim.

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 14.92%, 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.
