Sherwin Williams

Lagoon

SW 6480

Lagoon (SW 6480) is a cool mid-tone blue with teal undertones that sits firmly in the blue-green family. At an LRV of 20, it absorbs a substantial amount of light and reads as a concentrated, saturated hue best suited for accent walls, powder rooms, or exterior shutters. The teal undertone distinguishes it from pure blues and gives it noticeable depth.

It pairs effectively with Sherwin-Williams Extra White, Alabaster, Rainwashed, Quietude, and Halcyon Green, which help offset its low reflectance with lighter surrounding surfaces.
