What color is Sherwin Williams Rita's Rouge?
Sherwin Williams Rita's Rouge SW 9003 is a medium-depth muted rose red with a soft, dusty cast rather than a bright berry intensity. Its #ba7176 color value gives it a warm red foundation tempered by subtle pink and gray notes. In bright daylight, Rita's Rouge can read as a clearer rosy red, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its earthier, more subdued side. It has enough color for a dining room, powder room, or painted front door, and it can also make an appealing accent wall behind a bed or sofa. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm taupe, natural oak, aged brass, or deep charcoal for contrast.
LRV of Rita's Rouge
Rita's Rouge has an LRV of 23.57% 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 23.57%, 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.
