What color is Sherwin Williams Courtyard?
Sherwin Williams Courtyard SW 6440 is a deep, muted green with an earthy olive cast and a noticeably gray-softened finish. Its low saturation keeps the color grounded rather than bright, making it especially effective for cabinetry, built-ins, front doors, or a small room where darker walls feel intentional. In daylight, Courtyard reads as a shaded garden green; under warm artificial light, its olive undertone becomes more apparent. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm wood, aged brass, charcoal, or natural stone for a layered, material-focused look.

LRV of Courtyard
Courtyard has an LRV of 8.62% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect light. Why LRV is important?
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 8.62%, 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.
