What color is Sherwin Williams Rocky River?
Sherwin Williams Rocky River SW 6215 is a muted blue-green gray with a medium-dark depth and a softly weathered appearance. Its green base is tempered by gray, while the blue influence keeps it from reading too earthy or olive. In bright daylight, Rocky River can look cleaner and slightly cooler; lower or warmer lighting brings out its deeper, smokier green cast. It suits powder rooms, studies, bedroom walls, and painted cabinetry where a grounded color is wanted without using a near-black. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, aged brass, charcoal accents, or natural stone with gray and cream variation.

LRV of Rocky River
Rocky River has an LRV of 14.97% 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 14.97%, 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.
