What color is Sherwin Williams Haven?
Sherwin Williams Haven SW 6437 is a muted yellow-green with a soft, grayed cast that keeps it from reading too bright. Its medium-light depth gives walls noticeable color while maintaining an airy, natural look. In warm daylight, Haven can lean more leafy and olive-toned; cooler light brings out its subdued sage side. It suits bedrooms, mudrooms, and kitchens, especially alongside warm white trim, natural oak, aged brass, or woven textures. On cabinetry or an exterior door, this shade offers a grounded alternative to more conventional gray or beige.

LRV of Haven
Haven has an LRV of 42.49% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half 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 42.49%, 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.
