Sherwin Williams

Little Boy Blu

SW 9054

Little Boy Blu SW 6482 is a cool blue softened by gray undertones, registering an LRV of 67 that keeps it in the higher light-reflective range. The gray influence reduces saturation noticeably, making it read as a muted, quiet blue rather than a vivid one. This quality suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and living areas where low intensity is preferred.

It coordinates well with Pure White SW 7005 for trim and Agreeable Gray SW 7029 on adjacent walls. For tonal pairings, Sleepy Blue SW 6225 and Krypton SW 6247 work effectively, while Alabaster SW 7008 adds warmth to transitions.
