What color is Sherwin Williams Smoky Blue?
Sherwin Williams Smoky Blue SW 7604 is a muted blue-gray with a cool, lightly weathered character. Its medium-dark depth gives walls enough presence to define a room without reading as nearly black. In daylight, Smoky Blue shows its softened blue tone clearly, while lower or warmer lighting can bring its gray cast forward. It suits bedrooms, studies, and bathrooms, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or natural linen. On cabinetry or a single accent wall, this shade provides a grounded contrast to warmer off-whites and light wood finishes.

LRV of Smoky Blue
Smoky Blue has an LRV of 14.62% 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 14.62%, 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.
