What color is Sherwin Williams Green Earth?
Sherwin Williams Green Earth SW 7748 is a muted, medium-light earthy neutral with a soft olive cast and gray-beige base. Its low saturation keeps the color grounded rather than overtly green, giving walls a weathered, mineral-like appearance. In bright daylight, Green Earth can read as a dusty khaki; under warmer artificial light, its beige undertone becomes more noticeable. It suits studies, living rooms, mudrooms, and exterior siding where a quiet natural color is wanted without going too dark. Pair it with warm white trim, charcoal accents, aged brass, natural oak, and stone or linen textiles.
LRV of Green Earth
Green Earth has an LRV of 31.1% 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 31.1%, 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.
