Sherwin Williams Timid Blue SW 6490

Sherwin Williams Timid Blue SW 6490 is a very light, muted blue-green with a soft gray cast that keeps it from reading overly pastel. Its cool undertone is noticeable, though the gentle green influence gives the color a slightly softened, airy appearance rather than a sharp icy look. In bright daylight, Timid Blue can appear cleaner and closer to a pale aqua, while lower or warmer light brings out its subdued gray-green side. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and laundry rooms especially well, and can also make kitchen cabinetry feel light without looking stark. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or charcoal accents for definition.
