Sherwin Williams

Endless Sea

SW 9150

Endless Sea is a deep, cool blue with muted teal-green undertones that distinguish it from pure navy tones. Its LRV of 9 makes it quite dark, so it is best reserved for accent walls, exterior doors, or well-lit rooms where depth is intended. It coordinates with Sherwin-Williams Alabaster, Greek Villa, Watery, Rain, and Atmospheric, which provide lighter counterbalance and tonal blue-green companions that create contrast without disrupting the overall cool palette of the space.

Endless Sea in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

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.
