What color is Sherwin Williams Viva Gold?
Sherwin Williams Viva Gold SW 6367 is a warm, mid-tone golden tan with a clear orange cast that keeps it lively rather than muted. Its #e3ac72 color value reads like sun-baked honey or ochre-tinted sand, with enough softness for broad wall coverage. In bright daylight, Viva Gold can appear brighter and more yellow-gold, while lower or warmer lighting draws out its earthy amber side. It suits dining rooms, entryways, and kitchens where a richer wall color can add visual warmth. Pair it with creamy off-whites, deep olive greens, charcoal accents, or natural walnut and aged brass for a grounded palette.

LRV of Viva Gold
Viva Gold has an LRV of 47.16% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half 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 47.16%, 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.
