What color is Little Greene Boxington?
Little Greene Boxington 84 is a muted yellow-green with an olive cast, sitting at a comfortable mid-light depth. Its softened saturation keeps it from reading as sharp lime or heavy khaki, giving walls a grounded, leafy character. In warm daylight and lamplight, Boxington can appear more golden and earthy, while cooler light draws out its greener side. It suits kitchens, garden-facing rooms, and painted cabinetry, especially alongside warm white, natural oak, aged brass, and terracotta details. For contrast, pair this shade with deep charcoal, inky blue, or a dark brown-black on trim and furniture.

What are Little Greene Boxington undertones?
Boxington appears as a mid-light, softly muted yellow-green with enough color to read clearly rather than as a neutral. Relative to a more straightforward yellow, it has a slight green bias that gives it an olive-leaning character without making it look strongly green. Warm artificial light may bring out its yellow side, while cooler daylight can make the green influence more noticeable.
