What color is Sherwin Williams Urbane Bronze?
Sherwin Williams Urbane Bronze SW 7048 is a deep, muted brown-gray with a noticeable olive cast that keeps it from reading flat or nearly black. In bright daylight, its earthy green undertone is easier to see, while north-facing rooms can make it look cooler and more charcoal-like. Under warm lamps at night, it settles into a rich, shadowy bronze-brown. It suits exterior trim, front doors, kitchen islands, built-ins, and powder room walls where a darker color can feel intentional rather than heavy. Pair it with warm white walls, natural oak or walnut, aged brass, honed stone, and linen textiles for a grounded look.
LRV of Urbane Bronze
Urbane Bronze has an LRV of 8% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 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.
