Give this sample a clear job
Sample Sherwin-Williams Moody Blue SW-6221 beside the fixed finishes, in the intended orientation and under normal room lighting. The trial should settle a moody blue whose green side should not be missed . Moody Blue has greater depth than Stardew and carries green-gray undertones, making the green side a meaningful part of the blue choice.
Why the cream upholstery and walnut relationship matters
Cream upholstery and walnut can restrain the surrounding palette, leaving the blue-green wall as the room's main color.
Moody Blue has an LRV of 27; Sherwin-Williams Stardew SW-9138 is 43. The difference is 16 points, with Stardew returning more light under the reference measurement.
Keep the comparison fair
Use a large dried Moody Blue board and inspect it at the darkest intended position. Photograph the area only as a planning record; judge the color in person with the normal lamps. Compare the full painted shape before assuming a small dark chip predicts the room's enclosure.
Approve the actual coating and the least favorable view
Compare it to a less green blue before choosing accessories; let the paint establish the direction. The trim color comparison covers that related choice.
Keep the approved dried board with the complete Sherwin-Williams SW-6221 product and finish specification. Follow the actual coating instructions for application, drying and preparation; the color name does not settle those requirements. The daylight and evening-light checks covers that related choice. Before ordering samples, compare room-planning features in the paint color visualizer roundup.
