What color is Sherwin Williams Lullaby?
Sherwin Williams Lullaby SW 9136 is a pale, muted blue-gray with a faint green cast that keeps it from reading like a straightforward icy blue. Its low saturation gives walls a soft, lightly clouded appearance, especially in rooms with generous natural light. In cooler north-facing spaces, Lullaby can appear more blue-gray, while warm bulbs may bring out its quiet gray-green side. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and laundry rooms, as well as built-in cabinetry when a subtle alternative to white is wanted. Pair it with crisp white trim, light oak, brushed nickel, charcoal accents, or natural linen for an understated, clean-lined palette.

What are Sherwin Williams Lullaby undertones?
Lullaby reads as a light, low-saturation blue-gray with an almost neutral overall character. In the supplied digital sample, the color leans very slightly toward teal, but that bias is subtle enough that a firm undertone call would be uncertain. Sherwin-Williams classifies Lullaby as a blue, which fits its visible blue-based main color family rather than indicating a stronger green or gray color. Warm artificial light may make its gray softness more noticeable, while cool daylight can make the faint blue-teal cast easier to see.

LRV of Lullaby
Lullaby has an LRV of 64.67% and refers to Light colors that reflect most 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 64.67%, 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.
