Sherwin Williams

Composed

SW 6472

Composed by Sherwin-Williams is a blue-green with gray undertones, identified at hex #7EA298. Its LRV of 33 places it in the lower-to-mid reflectance range, producing a tone that reads as muted and restrained rather than saturated. The gray component tempers the blue-green base, pulling it away from a vivid teal toward a quieter, more grayed register.

It layers well with analogous Sherwin-Williams options such as Sea Salt and Rainwashed, which share its cool, muted character. Using Pure White as a trim tone introduces clean contrast, while pairing with Naval adds depth and visual weight to a coordinated scheme.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
