What color is Sherwin Williams Saguaro?

Sherwin Williams Saguaro SW 6419 is a deep, muted olive with a strong earthy yellow-brown cast. Its low-light depth gives it a grounded presence, while the softened green keeps it from reading as plain brown. In bright natural light, Saguaro can show more of its dusty olive character; at night or in shaded rooms, it settles into a darker, more subdued khaki-olive. It has enough weight for a study, dining room, or powder room, especially when paired with warm white trim, aged brass, and natural wood. Use it on cabinetry or an accent wall when you want a concentrated dose of color without a glossy or overly vivid effect.

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 11.08%, 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.
