What color is Sherwin Williams Thatch Brown?
Sherwin Williams Thatch Brown SW 6145 is a muted, medium-depth brown with a warm, weathered cast. Its #867057 color value suggests a softened blend of brown and tan rather than a sharp or heavily saturated earth tone. In bright daylight, Thatch Brown can read as a dry, dusty brown, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its deeper golden-brown character. It suits studies, dining rooms, exterior trim, and cabinetry where a grounded neutral is wanted without using a near-black shade. Pair it with creamy off-whites, aged brass, natural oak, linen upholstery, and charcoal accents for a layered, material-focused look.

LRV of Thatch Brown
Thatch Brown has an LRV of 17.41% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 17.41%, 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.
