What color is Sherwin Williams Argyle?

Sherwin Williams Argyle SW 6747 is a clear, medium-depth green with a noticeable blue cast that gives it a crisp teal character. Its fairly strong saturation keeps it from reading as a muted botanical green, especially in bright natural light. In lower or warmer lighting, the color can appear deeper and slightly more balanced between green and blue. Argyle makes a confident choice for a powder room, painted built-ins, a front door, or an exterior accent such as shutters. Pair it with soft white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, or warm brass for contrast, or use charcoal and deep navy nearby for a more dramatic scheme.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).

Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 19.61%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
