What color is Sherwin Williams Cascades?
Sherwin Williams Cascades SW 7623 is a deep blue-green with a smoky, near-charcoal cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. Its equal blue and green character reads cool and muted, especially in north-facing rooms or low light, where it can appear almost blackened teal. In brighter daylight, the green-blue undertone becomes more noticeable without losing its substantial depth. Use it on kitchen cabinetry, a dining room accent wall, or exterior trim when you want a dark color with more color presence than plain charcoal. Crisp white, soft putty, warm oak, aged brass, and pale stone provide clear contrast against this shade.

LRV of Cascades
Cascades has an LRV of 4.24% 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 4.24%, 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.
