What color is Sherwin Williams Santorini Blue?
Sherwin Williams Santorini Blue SW 7607 is a muted, medium-deep blue with a noticeable gray cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. Its cool blue character can read cleaner in daylight, while evening or low-light rooms bring out a deeper, slightly slate-like appearance. Use it on bedroom or bathroom walls for color that has presence without feeling overly saturated. It also makes a strong choice for cabinetry, especially alongside soft white walls, pale oak, brushed nickel, or honed stone. Warm off-whites and natural wood help offset this shade’s cooler direction.
LRV of Santorini Blue
Santorini Blue has an LRV of 13.76% 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 13.76%, 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.
