Sherwin Williams

Sunrise

SW 6668

Sunrise is a medium-depth yellow with noticeable orange undertones, giving it a warm, golden appearance. Its LRV of 58 places it in the mid-range for light reflectance, meaning it provides moderate brightness without washing out a room. The hex value #F4BF77 confirms its amber-leaning yellow character.

This shade works well in kitchens, dining rooms, and sunrooms where warm ambient light is common. It can be paired with Sherwin-Williams Alabaster, Creamy, Tradewind, and Coral Reef to build either a neutral-anchored warm scheme or a warm-cool contrasting palette.
