What color is Sherwin Williams Soft Suede?
Sherwin Williams Soft Suede SW 9577 is a light, muted beige with a gentle gray cast that keeps it from reading overly creamy. Its low-saturation finish gives walls a soft, powdery look, especially in living rooms, bedrooms, and quiet entryways. In warm daylight or lamplight, Soft Suede leans a little more beige; cooler light can bring forward its subdued gray-taupe side. Pair it with off-white trim, pale oak, linen upholstery, and brushed nickel or aged brass for a restrained, layered palette. This shade is most at home on broad wall surfaces, though it can also suit cabinetry when the room has ample natural light.

LRV of Soft Suede
Soft Suede has an LRV of 57.21% and refers to Light colors that reflect most 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 57.21%, 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.
