What color is Sherwin Williams Springtime?
Sherwin Williams Springtime SW 6708 is a light, softened yellow with a noticeable muted green cast that keeps it from reading overly buttery. Its high value gives walls an airy look, while the restrained saturation makes the color feel gentle rather than bright. In warm daylight, Springtime can lean toward creamy yellow; under cooler light, its subtle olive-green undertone becomes easier to see. It suits kitchens, breakfast nooks, sunrooms, and children’s spaces where a pale color with more character than white is wanted. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, woven cane, and soft gray-green accents for a grounded palette.
LRV of Springtime
Springtime has an LRV of 76.64% and refers to Off‑White 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 76.64%, 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.
