Sherwin Williams

Sunset

SW 6626

Sunset is a warm orange with red and yellow undertones, producing a rich, saturated mid-tone. At an LRV of 39, it absorbs more light than it reflects, which gives it a grounding presence in a room. The hex value #E2946F confirms a muted terracotta-leaning orange rather than a bright or neon tone.

This color is frequently applied in living rooms and dining spaces where a warm atmosphere is the goal. It coordinates with Sherwin-Williams Creamy, Alabaster, Naval, and Debonair, offering options for both analogous warm groupings and contrasting cool pairings.
