What color is Sherwin Williams Cascade Green?

Sherwin Williams Cascade Green SW 0066 is a light, muted green with a noticeable gray cast and a soft olive-sage undertone. Its low saturation keeps it understated rather than leafy or bright, giving walls a gently weathered, mineral-like appearance. In bright daylight, this color can read as a pale gray-green, while warmer artificial light may bring out more of its subdued yellow-green side. Cascade Green suits bedrooms, bathrooms, mudrooms, and quiet living areas, especially alongside warm white trim, aged brass, oak, linen, and natural stone. It can also make a restrained choice for cabinetry when paired with creamy walls and darker bronze or black hardware.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).

Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 42.92%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
