Llama Wool

SW 9089

Llama Wool SW 9089 is a warm neutral defined by orange undertones, with an LRV of 20 that places it firmly in the darker range. The orange cast gives it an earthy, terra cotta-adjacent warmth that reads distinctly under cool daylight versus warm artificial light. It functions effectively as an accent wall, exterior body color, or in studies and dining rooms where depth is desired.

Pair with Shoji White SW 7042 or Alabaster SW 7008 on trim for contrast. Complementary coordination includes Accessible Beige SW 7036, Urbane Bronze SW 7048, and Cavern Clay SW 7701.

Llama Wool in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
