What color is Sherwin Williams Laudable Lime?

Sherwin Williams Laudable Lime SW 6930 is a clear, mid-tone green with a noticeable yellow cast that gives it a fresh, leafy appearance. Its moderate brightness and saturation keep it from reading as a pale pastel or a heavy forest green. In strong daylight, Laudable Lime can look cleaner and more energetic, while lower or warmer artificial light may bring out its yellow-green side. It makes a lively choice for an accent wall, mudroom, playroom, garden-facing kitchen, or painted furniture. Pair this color with crisp white trim, warm natural wood, charcoal accents, or earthy terracotta for contrast.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.

The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).

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.
