What color is Sherwin Williams Domino?

Sherwin Williams Domino SW 6989 is a deeply dark charcoal that sits close to black, with a subtle cool, slightly violet cast visible in brighter light. Its low-light character makes it read nearly black at night or in shadow, while daylight reveals more of its softened gray-purple complexity. Domino is especially effective on cabinetry, interior doors, built-ins, and accent walls where a strong dark outline is wanted without using a flat true black. Pair it with crisp off-whites, pale grays, natural oak, brushed nickel, or matte black hardware for a clean, grounded contrast.

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 3.37%, 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.
