Let it Rain

SW 9152

Let it Rain SW 9152 is a cool muted blue with gray undertones that position it as a restrained, neutral-leaning mid-tone. At an LRV of 34, it falls in the medium range and works well in bathrooms, laundry rooms, and hallways where a quiet cool backdrop is needed. The gray base prevents it from reading overtly blue in lower light.

It coordinates naturally with Sherwin-Williams Extra White SW 7006 for clean trim and pairs with Agreeable Gray SW 7029, Iron Ore SW 7069, Alabaster SW 7008, and Greek Villa SW 7551.
