What color is Sherwin Williams Sweet Orange?
Sherwin Williams Sweet Orange SW 6351 is a light, muted peach with a creamy beige cast that keeps its orange influence soft rather than bright. Its warm, low-saturation appearance can read as a gentle blush-peach in daylight and shift toward a toastier apricot-beige under warm evening bulbs. This color is especially well suited to bedroom, nursery, or dining-room walls where a pale warm tint is wanted without the intensity of a stronger coral. Pair Sweet Orange with warm white trim, natural oak, woven cane, and linen upholstery for a relaxed, layered look. Deep clay accents, soft olive greens, and dusty blue-gray textiles can provide useful contrast without making the shade look overly pink.

LRV of Sweet Orange
Sweet Orange has an LRV of 64.31% 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 64.31%, 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.
