What color is Sherwin Williams Sleepy Owlet?
Sherwin Williams Sleepy Owlet SW 9513 is a light, muted greige with a soft brown cast that keeps it from reading like a plain cool gray. It can look gently putty-like in daylight, while warm lamps bring out its beige and taupe undertones. In north-facing rooms, expect a quieter gray-beige appearance; south-facing light gives it a warmer, slightly creamier look. Sleepy Owlet suits bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways where a low-contrast neutral is wanted without stark white walls. Pair it with oatmeal linens, aged brass, natural oak, warm white trim, and deeper charcoal or earthy olive accents.
LRV of Sleepy Owlet
Sleepy Owlet has an LRV of 39.44% 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 39.44%, 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.
