Sherwin Williams

Aleutian

SW 6241

Aleutian (SW, #98A9B7) is a muted, mid-toned blue carrying a cool gray cast that gives it a smoky, subdued quality. With an LRV of 39, it sits in the medium range, contributing visual depth without dominating a room. Its undertones lean toward slate and soft steel rather than bright sky blue.

Pairing it with Passive or Olympus White maintains a consistently cool scheme, while an earthier tone like Shiitake introduces warmth through contrast. Deeper options such as Urbane Bronze or a dusty violet like Wallflower complement its restrained cool base.
