What color is Sherwin Williams Meander Blue?
Sherwin Williams Meander Blue SW 6484 is a pale blue-green with a softly muted, airy appearance. Its color value suggests a light, cool-leaning shade that reads cleanly without the sharpness of a brighter aqua. In daylight, Meander Blue can show its gentle green cast more clearly, while lower or warmer artificial light may make it appear quieter and slightly grayer. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, laundry rooms, and sunlit sitting areas where a light wash of color is wanted on the walls. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, or soft warm gray textiles to keep the blue-green tone grounded.

LRV of Meander Blue
Meander Blue has an LRV of 66.39% 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 66.39%, 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.
