What color is Sherwin Williams Yearling?

Sherwin Williams Yearling SW 7725 is a muted medium tan with clear warm brown and soft caramel undertones. Its earthy cast gives walls more presence than a pale beige while remaining restrained enough for larger areas. In bright natural light, Yearling can read as a sun-warmed khaki tan; lower or warmer lighting brings out its deeper, slightly toasted quality. It suits living rooms, dining rooms, entryways, and exterior siding where a grounded neutral is wanted. Pair it with creamy off-whites, deep olive greens, charcoal accents, and natural oak, leather, or aged brass finishes.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 27.75%, 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.
