Sherwin Williams

Forever Lilac

SW 9067

Forever Lilac is a cool, muted lavender carrying distinct blue undertones that prevent it from shifting pink in most lighting conditions. At an LRV of 40, it sits in the mid-range and reflects a moderate amount of light, making it suitable for bedrooms, bathrooms, or transitional hallways. The blue base gives it a slightly dusty quality rather than a sweet violet read.

It pairs cleanly with Passive on neighboring walls, Eider White for trim, Naval as a deep accent, Tricorn Black for contrast, and Sea Salt in adjacent spaces.
