Sherwin Williams

Soar

SW 6799

Soar is a light, cool blue from Sherwin-Williams with a subtle violet undertone that edges it toward the blue-purple range. With an LRV of 70, it reflects a significant amount of light, making it functional in smaller rooms or spaces with limited natural light. The cool temperature and low saturation keep it from reading as overtly blue, instead producing a soft, pale wash on walls.

It is commonly used on ceilings, upper walls, bedrooms, and bathrooms. Soar coordinates with Sherwin-Williams Windy Blue, Mild Blue, Stardew, and warmer neutrals like Shoji White or Accessible Beige.
