Sherwin Williams

Mocha

SW 6067

Mocha is a warm earthy brown with red undertones, carrying an LRV of 21. At this depth, it reads as a substantial mid-tone brown that shifts slightly toward terracotta under incandescent lighting. The red undertone becomes more visible on larger wall surfaces.

It works well in studies, dining rooms, and accent walls where grounded warmth is needed. Mocha coordinates naturally with SW Accessible Beige, SW Shoji White, SW Caviar, SW Kilim Beige, and SW Urbane Bronze, allowing layered schemes built around warm neutrals and deep anchoring tones.
