What color is Sherwin Williams Vaguely Mauve?
Sherwin Williams Vaguely Mauve SW 6015 is a pale, muted mauve with a noticeable gray cast, giving it a softly weathered pink-beige appearance. Its low saturation keeps the color quiet on large walls, where it reads more like a warmed-up neutral than a distinctly rosy pink. In warm artificial light, Vaguely Mauve can show a gentler blush tone, while cooler daylight brings forward its gray, slightly dusky side. It suits bedrooms, powder rooms, and living spaces that need subtle color without a strong contrast against white trim. Pair it with creamy off-whites, medium warm grays, natural oak, linen upholstery, or aged brass for a restrained, layered look.

LRV of Vaguely Mauve
Vaguely Mauve has an LRV of 57.23% 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 57.23%, 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.
