What color is Sherwin Williams Subdued Sienna?
Sherwin Williams Subdued Sienna SW 9009 is a muted clay-toned color with a clear warm lean, sitting between soft terracotta and dusty coral. Its #cc896c value gives it moderate depth and a softened, earthy saturation rather than a bright orange-red appearance. In daylight, this shade can read as a warm baked-peach neutral, while evening light may bring out its rosier brown undertones. Use it on a dining room, powder room, or sunlit bedroom wall where its warmth can feel intentional without overwhelming the room. Subdued Sienna pairs well with creamy off-whites, pale sand, warm medium woods, aged brass, natural linen, and charcoal accents.

LRV of Subdued Sienna
Subdued Sienna has an LRV of 31.8% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 31.8%, 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.
