What color is Sherwin Williams Soulful Blue?
Sherwin Williams Soulful Blue SW 6543 is a muted medium blue with a noticeable gray cast, giving it a softly weathered, slate-like appearance. Its cool blue presence is tempered by the low saturation, so it reads quieter on broad walls than a brighter navy or denim shade. In daylight, this color can show as a clean blue-gray, while lower or warmer indoor light may bring out its softened, slightly dusky character. It suits bedrooms, home offices, and bathrooms, and can also make a measured statement on cabinetry or an exterior front door. Pair Soulful Blue with crisp off-whites, pale greige, light oak, aged brass, or charcoal accents for a grounded palette.

LRV of Soulful Blue
Soulful Blue has an LRV of 20.3% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 20.3%, 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.
