Is Wythe Blue warm or cool?
Wythe Blue is cool, with green leading slightly over blue and a gray undertone holding both in check. At an LRV of approximately 49, it sits mid-scale, visible and confident without darkening a room. Outdoor shade pushes it bluer, warm interior light greener. It flatters warm brick, copper, and creamy trim, which is part of why it became a classic exterior accent color.
Why does Wythe Blue look different on screen than on the wall?
Screens emit light while paint reflects it, so a hex code cannot capture how lighting, sheen, and surrounding colors shift paint in a real room. Treat #AABEB4 as accurate for digital design work, and use physical samples for final approval.
What LRV does Wythe Blue have?
Wythe Blue has a Light Reflectance Value of approximately 49, meaning it reflects about 49% of visible light. That mid-range depth reads as a true color on the wall without going dark.
