What color is Sherwin Williams Bridgeport?
Sherwin Williams Bridgeport SW 2940 is a deep, saturated blue with a clear cool cast and substantial visual weight. Its #004683 color value reads as a strong blue rather than a softened or gray-blue tone, making it especially effective for a focal wall, built-in cabinetry, or a front door. In bright daylight, Bridgeport can appear cleaner and more energetic, while lower light brings out its darker, inkier side. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale gray stone, warm natural wood, or brushed brass for contrast. In a dining room, office, or exterior detail, this shade creates a defined block of color without drifting into navy.
LRV of Bridgeport
Bridgeport has an LRV of 4.82% 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 4.82%, 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.
