What color is Sherwin Williams Needlepoint Navy?
Sherwin Williams Needlepoint Navy SW 0032 is a muted, medium-dark blue-gray with a noticeably softened, low-saturation appearance. Its gray cast keeps the blue from reading too crisp, giving walls a grounded look that can feel cooler in north-facing daylight and slightly smokier under warm lamps. Use it in a study, dining room, mudroom, or bedroom where a deeper wall color is wanted without the intensity of a near-black navy. Needlepoint Navy also has enough restraint for painted cabinetry or an exterior door. Pair it with chalky off-whites, pale greige, weathered oak, brushed nickel, or warm brass for contrast.

LRV of Needlepoint Navy
Needlepoint Navy has an LRV of 12.67% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 12.67%, 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.
