What color is Sherwin Williams Sockeye?

Sherwin Williams Sockeye SW 6619 is a warm, medium-light coral with a clear salmon-pink cast and a noticeable orange undertone. Its color depth gives it more presence than a pale blush, while the softened red-orange base keeps it from feeling overly bright. In daylight, Sockeye reads as a cheerful peachy coral; under warmer evening bulbs, its pink and terracotta notes become more apparent. It makes a lively choice for a dining room, powder room, breakfast nook, or painted front door, and can also add character to kitchen cabinetry in smaller doses. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm beige stone, natural oak, matte black details, or muted blue-green accents 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 40.06%, 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.
