Santorini Blue
Sherwin-Williams's Santorini Blue is a blue shade whose quieter details emerge through comparison. Its LRV of 13.8 gives it real visual weight, allowing the color to hold a wall rather than simply recede from view. Because screens flatten both light and texture, sample the paint beside the finishes that will ultimately surround it.
