What color is Sherwin Williams Copen Blue?
Sherwin Williams Copen Blue SW 0068 is a light, muted blue-green with a soft gray cast that keeps it from reading overly pastel. Its low saturation gives walls a gently weathered look, while the pale value helps smaller rooms feel open. In cool daylight, the green-gray side may come forward; warmer bulbs can make the color appear quieter and slightly more neutral. Use it in bedrooms, bathrooms, mudrooms, or on cabinetry with warm white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and natural linen. Deep charcoal, muted navy, and earthy clay accents add useful contrast without overpowering this restrained shade.

LRV of Copen Blue
Copen Blue has an LRV of 58.65% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 58.65%, 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.
