What color is Sherwin Williams Stony Creek?
Sherwin Williams Stony Creek SW 9610 is a deep, muted charcoal-gray with a noticeable earthy brown cast. Its low-light value gives walls a grounded, cocooning look, while the softened neutrality keeps it from reading as a hard black. In warm daylight or alongside wood, Stony Creek can appear more taupe-brown; cooler lighting draws out its smoky gray side. It suits studies, dining rooms, powder rooms, and exterior trim, and also makes a strong cabinet color when paired with pale stone counters. Try it with warm white, natural oak, aged brass, blackened metal, or sandy beige textiles to emphasize its organic depth.
LRV of Stony Creek
Stony Creek has an LRV of 8.73% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 8.73%, 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.
