Sherwin Williams Reflecting Pool SW 6486 is a softened blue-green with a noticeable gray cast that keeps it from reading overly bright. Its medium-light depth gives walls clear color presence while maintaining an airy, water-inspired look. In cooler daylight, Reflecting Pool can appear bluer and crisper; warmer evening lighting tends to bring forward its muted green-teal side. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, and laundry rooms, and can also make a distinctive choice for painted cabinetry or a front door. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, and brushed nickel or matte black hardware for a grounded finish.
