What color is Sherwin Williams Rice Paddy?
Sherwin Williams Rice Paddy SW 6414 is a light, muted beige with a noticeable golden-yellow cast. Its soft khaki undertone keeps it warmer than a plain cream, while the restrained saturation prevents it from reading overly sunny. In bright daylight, Rice Paddy can look like a pale oat or parchment shade; lower or warmer lighting draws out its deeper honeyed beige notes. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a gentle neutral is wanted, and it pairs especially well with warm white trim, natural oak, woven fibers, and aged brass.

LRV of Rice Paddy
Rice Paddy has an LRV of 66.16% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 66.16%, 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.
