Sherwin Williams Awesome Violet SW 6815 is a light, muted blue-violet with a clear periwinkle cast. Its soft grayness keeps the color from reading overly sweet, while the blue presence gives it a noticeably cool character. In bright daylight, Awesome Violet can look like a powdery lavender-blue; under warmer lamps, its violet side becomes more apparent. It is especially well suited to bedrooms, bathrooms, and quiet home offices, or as a gentle color for built-in cabinetry. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, charcoal accents, or deeper navy textiles for contrast.
