What color is Sherwin Williams Garden Sage?
Sherwin Williams Garden Sage SW 7736 is a muted, mid-light olive beige with a noticeable warm, yellowed cast. Its green presence is restrained rather than leafy, giving the color a dry, earthy look that can read slightly khaki in warm artificial light. In cooler daylight, the softened olive undertone becomes clearer while the overall finish remains low in saturation. Use it on living room, bedroom, or hallway walls with creamy off-whites, weathered oak, linen upholstery, and aged brass. Garden Sage also suits cabinetry when paired with pale stone counters and warmer beige or tan tile.

LRV of Garden Sage
Garden Sage has an LRV of 37.92% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 37.92%, 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.
