What color is Sherwin Williams Juniper?
Sherwin Williams Juniper SW 9679 is a muted mid-tone green with a noticeable gray cast and a quiet blue influence. Its #658375 color value gives it an earthy, softened appearance rather than a bright botanical green. In daylight, Juniper can read as a balanced green-gray, while lower or cooler light may draw out its blue-leaning, shadowy side. It is well suited to bedroom or study walls, where its moderate depth adds color without making the room feel overly dark. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, aged brass, and natural linen for contrast, or use it on cabinetry alongside light stone counters for a grounded look.

What are Sherwin Williams Juniper undertones?
Juniper is a midtone, muted green with a restrained, gray-softened character rather than a bright or vivid look. The supplied digital sample shows a slight yellow-green bias, which can make the green feel a little earthier while still reading clearly as green overall. Sherwin Williams identifies Juniper as a green paint color but does not describe a specific undertone on the provided official page. Warm artificial light may bring out its softer yellow influence, while cool daylight may make the green appear a touch cleaner or cooler.

LRV of Juniper
Juniper has an LRV of 20.36% 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 20.36%, 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.
