What color is Sherwin Williams Jocular Green?

Sherwin Williams Jocular Green SW 6736 is a pale, lightly muted green with a soft yellow-green cast that keeps it from reading icy or blue. Its low saturation gives walls a washed, airy look, especially in rooms with generous daylight. In north-facing light, Jocular Green may appear a touch cooler and grayer, while warmer bulbs bring out its gentle leafy quality. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, sunrooms, and kitchen walls where a quiet hint of color is wanted without much visual weight. Pair it with warm white trim, light oak, natural linen, or muted clay accents for a grounded, natural palette.

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 71.38%, 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.
