What color is Sherwin Williams Capri?
Sherwin Williams Capri SW 6788 is a clear, saturated blue-green with a distinctly cool cast and lively turquoise character. Its medium depth gives it enough presence for a full bathroom, laundry room, or sunlit kitchen wall without reading as overly dark. In bright natural light, Capri shows its crisp aqua-blue side, while softer indoor lighting can make the green note feel a little more noticeable. Pair it with clean white trim, pale sand tones, light oak, or brushed nickel for a fresh, architectural contrast. It is especially effective on an accent wall, painted cabinetry, or a front door where its vivid color can be appreciated in a smaller dose.

LRV of Capri
Capri has an LRV of 28.45% 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 28.45%, 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.
