What color is Sherwin Williams Studio Blue Green?

Sherwin Williams Studio Blue Green SW 0047 is a muted, medium-depth blue-green with a softened gray cast that keeps it from reading overly bright. Its balance of blue and green gives walls a cool, weathered look, while the restrained saturation makes it comfortable across larger surfaces. In daylight, this shade can show its green side more clearly; under warmer lamps, its gray undertone may become more noticeable. Try it in a bathroom, home office, or on painted cabinetry with creamy off-white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and natural linen. Dark charcoal accents or aged bronze hardware can add definition without competing with the color.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 20.37%, 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.
