About Hopsack
Hopsack (SW 6109) is a deep, medium-strength beige from Sherwin-Williams that leans peach. With an LRV of 24, Hopsack absorbs more light than it reflects, so it works best in rooms with good natural light or where you want a cozier feel.
In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Hopsack's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for bedrooms, offices, accent walls and kitchen cabinets. Next to Redend Point (SW 9081), it's darker and warmer.
