What color is Sherwin Williams Take Five?
Sherwin Williams Take Five SW 6513 is a light, muted blue with a noticeable gray cast that keeps it from reading overly sweet or bright. The #b3c9d3 value gives it an airy, cool-leaning appearance, while its softened saturation makes it easy on large wall areas. In bright daylight, Take Five can look cleaner and slightly icier; under warm bulbs, its gray undertone becomes more apparent. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and home offices where a pale blue is wanted without a strong coastal look. Pair it with soft white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, charcoal accents, or dusty navy textiles for a grounded contrast.

LRV of Take Five
Take Five has an LRV of 56.21% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 56.21%, 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.
