Sherwin Williams

Sweet Orange

SW 6351

Sweet Orange is a light, warm tone with soft orange and brown undertones that place it closer to a peach-beige than a saturated orange. Its LRV of 64 means it reflects a good amount of light, keeping rooms bright while still introducing noticeable warmth. The hex value #EBCCB3 confirms a muted, blush-tinted neutral with a distinctly warm cast.

This color is often used in living rooms, bedrooms, and dining areas where a warm neutral wall tone is appropriate. It coordinates with Sherwin-Williams Natural Linen, Creamy, Naval, Secret Garden, and Alabaster for balanced warm or mixed-temperature palettes.
