What color is Sherwin Williams Sun Bleached Ochre?

Sherwin Williams Sun Bleached Ochre SW 9011 is a light, warm ochre with a softened peach-orange cast. Its moderate saturation gives it more presence than a beige, while the pale value keeps it from reading too heavy on broad walls. In bright daylight, this color can look sunny and lightly terracotta-leaning; lower evening light brings out its earthier golden side. It suits kitchens, dining rooms, and entryways, and can also make a distinctive choice for cabinetry or a painted front door. Pair Sun Bleached Ochre with creamy off-whites, warm clay tones, natural oak, woven fibers, and matte black hardware 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 46.95%, 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.
