What color is Sherwin Williams Wild Poppy?
Sherwin Williams Wild Poppy SW 9694 is a muted clay-red with a noticeable rosy cast, reading warmer than a true brick or burgundy. Its mid-tone depth gives it enough color for a focal wall while keeping the effect softer than a bright red. In daylight, Wild Poppy can show its dusty pink-red side; warmer evening bulbs tend to draw out its earthy terracotta character. It is well suited to dining rooms, powder rooms, or painted built-ins, especially when paired with creamy off-whites, natural oak, woven textiles, and aged brass. For a more grounded scheme, combine this shade with warm taupe, soft charcoal, or deep olive accents.

LRV of Wild Poppy
Wild Poppy has an LRV of 18.33% 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 18.33%, 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.
