Windy Blue review: Sherwin-Williams SW 6240
Windy Blue in real light
Same sample board, four compass directions: this is the standardized shot list every color on this site gets, so you can compare across colors and not just across one photographer's living room. Photos for this color are still being shot; the notes below are what to expect from the color's undertone.
North light North light amplifies Windy Blue's cool or green cast; expect the truest read of its undertone here, for better or worse.
East light Morning east light is warm and golden, so Windy Blue looks brightest and warmest early in the day, then cools and flattens by afternoon as the light moves west.
South light South light is bright and warm most of the day, which can soften Windy Blue's cooler undertone without erasing it.
West light Afternoon west light is warm and can run intense right at sunset, then goes flat and cool in the morning before the sun reaches that side of the house.
soft gray-blue, faint green cast, the lightest blue on this site.
