What color is Sherwin Williams Sleepy Hollow?
Sherwin Williams Sleepy Hollow SW 9145 is a light, muted blue-gray with a soft, slightly silvery cast. Its low saturation keeps the blue from feeling sharp, giving walls a calm, airy appearance without reading icy. In bright daylight, Sleepy Hollow can appear cleaner and bluer, while evening or shaded rooms may pull forward its gentle gray side. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and living areas where a pale cool color can open up the room. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, weathered wood, charcoal accents, or warm brass for contrast.

LRV of Sleepy Hollow
Sleepy Hollow has an LRV of 56.69% 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 56.69%, 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.
