Sherwin Williams

Waterscape

SW 6470

Waterscape is a cool, muted blue-green from Sherwin-Williams with soft green undertones and low chroma. Its hex value is #BFD2C9 and its Light Reflectance Value of 62 places it in the medium-light range, reflecting enough light to keep rooms feeling open while still registering as a distinct color on walls. The undertone shifts depending on lighting conditions, leaning more blue in daylight and showing more green under incandescent sources.

It is commonly applied in bathrooms, bedrooms, and open living spaces. Sherwin-Williams Sea Salt and Topsail work as analogous companions, while Shoji White and Naval provide effective light-dark contrast.
