What color is Sherwin Williams Blue Hill?
Sherwin Williams Blue Hill SW 2939 is a deep, cool blue-green with a muted, lightly smoky cast. Its low-light value gives it a substantial presence on walls, where it can read closer to deep teal or blue-black depending on the room’s exposure. Bright natural light brings out more of its blue-green character, while evening light emphasizes its shadowy depth. Blue Hill is especially effective in studies, dining rooms, powder rooms, and built-in cabinetry, paired with warm white trim, pale oak, aged brass, or soft tan textiles. For a sharper contrast, use it alongside chalky white surfaces and dark metal hardware.

LRV of Blue Hill
Blue Hill has an LRV of 5.05% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect light. Why LRV is important?
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 5.05%, 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.
