What color is Sherwin Williams Garden Path?

Sherwin Williams Garden Path SW 2929 is a deep, muted olive-gray with a noticeably earthy cast. Its low-light value gives it a grounded, almost charcoal-like presence, while the subtle green-brown undertone keeps it from reading as a plain neutral. In bright daylight, Garden Path can show more of its olive character; under warm evening lighting, it may appear deeper and slightly browner. It is especially effective on cabinetry, a study wall, built-in shelving, or an exterior front door where a dark natural color feels appropriate. Pair it with warm white trim, aged brass, blackened metal, weathered wood, and stone or linen in sand and clay tones.

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 5.8%, 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.
