Sherwin Williams

Niebla Azul

SW 9137

Niebla Azul is a soft muted blue with gray undertones and an LRV of 53, situating it in the mid-light range where it reads as a composed blue-gray rather than a saturated color. It works effectively in bathrooms, bedrooms, and coastal-influenced spaces. The gray undertone keeps it restrained in both warm and cool lighting.

Niebla Azul coordinates well with Sherwin-Williams Extra White for trim, Agreeable Gray in hallways, Alabaster on ceilings, Needlepoint Navy as a deeper accent, and Rainwashed for a tonal blue scheme across adjacent rooms.

Niebla Azul in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
