What color is Sherwin Williams Lagoon?
Sherwin Williams Lagoon SW 6480 is a medium-depth blue-green with a softened, slightly gray cast that keeps it from reading overly bright. It leans cool overall, though its green presence gives the color a grounded, natural quality. In bright daylight, Lagoon can appear clearer and more teal; lower or warmer light tends to bring out its muted, earthy side. It has enough color for a bathroom vanity, kitchen island, or front door, while also holding its own on walls in a powder room or den. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, or charcoal accents for contrast.

LRV of Lagoon
Lagoon has an LRV of 20.29% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 20.29%, 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.
