What color is Sherwin Williams Passive?
Sherwin Williams Passive SW 7064 is a light, cool gray with a faint blue-violet cast that keeps it from reading flat or beige. In a north-facing room, the blue undertone is more noticeable, while warm evening bulbs can soften it toward a gentler, silvery gray. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and open living areas where a clean gray backdrop is wanted without the sharpness of a near-white. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak floors, linen upholstery, and brass fixtures to offset its cooler side. Passive also looks especially crisp on kitchen cabinetry beside white stone counters or a deep navy island.

LRV of Passive
Passive has an LRV of 60% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 60%, 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.
