What color is Sherwin Williams Bathe Blue?

Sherwin Williams Bathe Blue SW 6771 is a light, clean blue with a noticeable aqua cast and a softly muted finish. Its high lightness keeps it airy on full walls, while the blue-green undertone gives it more character than a standard pale blue. In bright daylight, Bathe Blue can look crisp and lightly watery; warmer evening bulbs tend to bring out its gentler green side. It suits bathrooms, laundry rooms, sunrooms, and bedrooms, especially alongside bright white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, or brushed nickel. Use it on cabinetry or a ceiling when you want a subtle wash of color without making the surface feel heavy.
