What 32 tells you about Acacia Haze
The published LRV of Sherwin-Williams Acacia Haze SW-9132 is 32. It describes light reflectance; it does not specify an undertone or predict the brightness of your room. Acacia Haze has similar depth to Evergreen Fog but a slate-blue influence within its green description.
The choice beside white counters and oak stools
A white countertop highlights the cabinet color, while the shaded lower door shows whether that blue-green remains useful throughout the run.
Compare Acacia Haze and Evergreen Fog at equal size, first considering depth and then hue. A lighter blue, green or pink is still a colored surface. Use the LRV to organize the depth question without assuming that it measures saturation or predicts which hue the room will favor.
What the comparison can—and cannot—settle
Acacia Haze has an LRV of 32; Sherwin-Williams Evergreen Fog SW-9130 is 30. The difference is 2 points, with Acacia Haze returning more light under the reference measurement. Acacia Haze is a green with slate-blue undertones and a mid-depth presence. The value measures reflectance, so it cannot by itself identify an undertone, a coating finish or the amount of illumination needed in the room. The daylight and evening-light checks covers that related choice.
Evaluate the green beside the white counter and beneath it before approving the island and perimeter together. Do not read LRV 32 as a percentage improvement in perceived room brightness. Make the decision with the board upright at the actual wall or cabinet position, including the least illuminated portion. The north-facing room assessment covers that related choice. Before ordering samples, compare room-planning features in the paint color visualizer roundup.
