What color is Sherwin Williams Silvermist?
Sherwin Williams Silvermist SW 7621 is a light, muted gray-green with a softly cool cast. Its low saturation keeps the color restrained, so it reads more like a weathered mineral tone than a clearly green wall color. In brighter daylight, the pale green undertone is easier to notice, while lower light can bring its gray side forward. Silvermist suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and living areas where white trim, pale oak, linen, brushed nickel, or matte black details can sharpen its subtle coloring. It also makes a considered option for cabinetry when paired with warm off-white walls or natural stone surfaces.

LRV of Silvermist
Silvermist has an LRV of 46.94% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half 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 46.94%, 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.
