What color is Sherwin Williams Morning Glory?

Sherwin Williams Morning Glory SW 6971 is a clear, mid-tone blue with a cool cast and a slight softness that keeps it from reading overly sharp. It has the fresh look of a blue morning sky, though it can appear a little deeper and more muted in north-facing rooms or on large wall expanses. Bright daylight brings out its cleaner blue character, while warm evening lighting can make it feel richer and slightly grayer. Use it on a powder room, laundry room, built-ins, or a bedroom accent wall when you want color without the weight of navy. Crisp warm white trim, pale oak, natural linen, brushed brass, and warm gray stone give Morning Glory a grounded, lived-in setting.

LRV of Morning Glory

Morning Glory has an LRV of 7.65% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect lightWhy LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 7.65%, 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.
