What color is Sherwin Williams Eventide?

Sherwin Williams Eventide SW 9643 is a muted blue-green gray with a soft, weathered cast. Its low saturation keeps the color understated, while the cool green and blue notes become more noticeable in clear daylight. In lower or warmer light, Eventide can read closer to a calm gray with a faint green undertone. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and quiet living areas, especially alongside warm white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and matte black details. For a more grounded palette, pair this shade with charcoal accents, stone surfaces, or deeper forest-toned textiles.

What are Sherwin Williams Eventide undertones?

Eventide reads as a mid-light, highly muted neutral with a soft teal-leaning cast rather than a strong blue or green presence. The green-teal bias is subtle in the supplied digital sample, so it may read close to gray in many settings. Sherwin-Williams classifies Eventide as a Neutral, which fits its low-saturation, grayed overall character rather than describing a specific undertone. Warm artificial light may make its cool teal cast appear quieter or slightly softened, while cool daylight can make that restrained blue-green direction easier to notice.

LRV of Eventide

Eventide has an LRV of 41.36% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident light. Why LRV is important?

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 41.36%, 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.
