What color is Sherwin Williams Smoky Salmon?
Sherwin Williams Smoky Salmon SW 6331 is a light, muted salmon-pink with a soft peach cast and a noticeably warm base. Its gentle saturation keeps it from reading overly sweet, giving walls a washed, powdery color rather than a bright coral effect. In daylight, Smoky Salmon can look like a delicate blush peach, while warmer evening lighting brings out more of its rosy warmth. It suits bedrooms, powder rooms, and dining spaces, especially alongside creamy white trim, natural oak, linen textures, and aged brass. For contrast, pair this shade with warm charcoal, deep olive, or a grounded taupe.
LRV of Smoky Salmon
Smoky Salmon has an LRV of 52.52% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half 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 52.52%, 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.
