What color is Sherwin Williams Woodsy Brown?
Sherwin Williams Woodsy Brown SW 2924 is a very deep brown with a clear warm cast, reading close to dark chocolate with restrained reddish-brown undertones. Its low lightness gives it substantial visual weight, so it is especially effective on cabinetry, interior doors, beams, or a single grounded accent wall. In bright daylight, Woodsy Brown may show more of its brown-red warmth, while lower or warmer lighting lets it appear nearly black-brown. Pair it with creamy off-whites, muted clay tones, aged brass, cognac leather, and medium-to-dark natural woods for a layered, earthy look.

LRV of Woodsy Brown
Woodsy Brown has an LRV of 3.99% 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 3.99%, 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.
