What color is Sherwin Williams Commodore?

Sherwin Williams Commodore SW 6524 is a deep, cool blue with a slightly muted, slate-like cast rather than a bright primary-blue look. Its medium-dark value gives walls noticeable presence, especially in studies, dining rooms, or bedrooms with ample natural light. In brighter conditions, its blue character reads more clearly; under lower or warmer lighting, it can appear darker and more reserved. Commodore is particularly effective on built-ins, kitchen islands, or interior doors when paired with crisp white trim, pale gray walls, and brushed nickel or aged brass hardware. For a warmer contrast, bring in natural oak, tan leather, or soft sand-colored textiles.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 5.97%, 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.
