What color is Sherwin Williams Still Water?
Sherwin Williams Still Water SW 6223 is a deep, muted blue-green with a distinctly cool cast and softened gray undertones. Its low-saturation character keeps the color from reading overly nautical or bright, giving it a grounded presence on larger walls. In daylight, Still Water can show more of its blue-teal side, while lower or warmer lighting may bring out its smoky, slate-like depth. It is especially effective in studies, dining rooms, powder rooms, and on built-in cabinetry where a darker color can add definition. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, aged brass, charcoal accents, or soft clay-toned textiles for contrast.

LRV of Still Water
Still Water has an LRV of 10.1% 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 10.1%, 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.
