What color is Sherwin Williams Tiki Hut?
Sherwin Williams Tiki Hut SW 7509 is a muted, medium-depth brown with a noticeably weathered gray cast. Its warm taupe base keeps it grounded, while the softened saturation prevents it from reading too heavy on broad walls. In bright natural light, Tiki Hut can appear like a dusty brown-gray; warmer evening bulbs bring forward its earthy brown side. It suits living rooms, dining rooms, and studies where wood furniture, leather, linen, or aged brass are part of the mix. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal accents, black metal, and natural oak for a layered, restrained look.

LRV of Tiki Hut
Tiki Hut has an LRV of 16.93% 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 16.93%, 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.
