What color is Sherwin Williams Hep Green?
Sherwin Williams Hep Green SW 6704 is a mid-tone yellow-green with a clear olive cast and a sun-warmed, earthy presence. Its golden undertone keeps it from reading like a sharp grass green, giving the color a slightly aged, botanical look instead. In bright daylight, Hep Green can appear more yellow and lively, while lower or cooler light brings forward its muted olive side. It suits a kitchen island, mudroom cabinetry, or a statement wall in a breakfast nook, especially alongside creamy whites, warm wood, aged brass, and terracotta tile. For a more grounded palette, pair this shade with deep brown, charcoal, or soft clay-colored accents.

LRV of Hep Green
Hep Green has an LRV of 43.64% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 43.64%, 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.
