What color is Sherwin Williams Nifty Turquoise?
Sherwin Williams Nifty Turquoise SW 6941 is a high-energy blue-green with a clear, cool turquoise cast and very little gray to soften it. It reads like tropical water in strong daylight, looking cleaner and more aqua when the room gets plenty of sun. In a north-facing space, the blue side can become more pronounced, while warm evening bulbs pull out a slightly greener note. This shade is best used where a bold dose of color makes sense: a powder room, a painted vanity, a front door, or the back wall of open shelving. Ground it with warm white walls, pale oak, woven linen, brass hardware, or matte black accents so the color remains the focal point.
LRV of Nifty Turquoise
Nifty Turquoise has an LRV of 21.02% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 21.02%, 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.
