How Craftsman Brown behaves on a wall

Our estimate, worked out from the hex colour, puts the light reflectance value of this Sherwin-Williams shade at about 30.9; Sherwin-Williams's own figure may differ. At an estimated LRV of 30.9 this sits mid-scale — dark enough to hold its own against white trim, light enough not to close a room in. Mid-tones shift the most between daylight and lamplight, so check it at both ends of the day. For trim that reads as a clear edge rather than a smudge, aim about 30 LRV points away — roughly LRV 61 and up. With 54 points between its strongest and weakest channel it holds a readable brown cast, so it will not flatten into a neutral once it is on four walls. Order by the code, not the name, and put a test patch on the wall before you commit — a screen cannot show you how this shade behaves in your own light.
