What color is Sherwin Williams Bluebird Feather?
Sherwin Williams Bluebird Feather SW 9062 is a medium, softened blue with a cool cast and a lightly muted, gray-leaning character. Its #6f9db3 color value keeps it from reading as overly bright, giving walls a calm, lived-in blue presence. In bright daylight, Bluebird Feather can appear clearer and airier, while lower or warmer lighting may bring out its quieter, more subdued side. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and reading rooms, and can also make a measured statement on a painted cabinet or interior door. Pair it with soft white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and warm ivory textiles for contrast without making the blue feel stark.

LRV of Bluebird Feather
Bluebird Feather has an LRV of 30.91% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 30.91%, 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.
