What color is Sherwin Williams Soft Apricot?
Sherwin Williams Soft Apricot SW 6352 is a light, muted peach with a noticeable beige cast that keeps it from reading overly sweet or bright. Its warm orange-pink undertone can look softly sunlit in south-facing rooms, while lower or cooler light brings out more of its subdued tan quality. Soft Apricot is well suited to bedroom, nursery, dining room, or powder room walls where a gentle wash of warmth is wanted. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm taupe, natural oak, linen upholstery, and terracotta or clay accents for a grounded palette. It can also add a quiet dose of color to painted cabinetry or a small accent wall.

LRV of Soft Apricot
Soft Apricot has an LRV of 50.07% 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 50.07%, 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.
