What color is Sherwin Williams Sandy Ridge?

Sherwin Williams Sandy Ridge SW 7535 is a muted, medium-depth taupe with a clear warm beige-brown cast. Its softened, slightly dusty appearance keeps it from reading overly golden, while the underlying warmth helps it sit comfortably beside cream trim, natural oak, and woven linen. In bright daylight, Sandy Ridge can look lighter and more beige; lower or warmer lighting brings out its earthy brown side. It is well suited to living room walls, bedrooms, entryways, or exterior siding where a grounded neutral is wanted without using a very dark shade. Pair it with off-white, charcoal accents, black metal, aged brass, and stone or terracotta materials for contrast.

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 28.15%, 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.
