Sherwin Williams

Hyper Blue

SW 6965

Hyper Blue is a vibrant deep blue with an LRV of 10. At this low reflectance value, the color reads as a bold, saturated mid-navy with strong presence on any surface. It is best applied as an accent wall color, on cabinetry, exterior doors, or in powder rooms where darker saturation is manageable.

Its depth pairs well with lighter values for contrast. Consider Sherwin-Williams Pure White, Watery, Anchors Aweigh, Uncertain Gray, and Tinsmith for balanced combinations that offset its intensity.
