What color is Little Greene Hopper?

Little Greene Hopper 297 is a muted mid-depth green with an olive cast and a gently earthy character. Its softened yellow-green undertone keeps it from reading overly cool, while the greyed quality gives the color a settled, natural look. In brighter daylight, Hopper can appear like weathered foliage; under warmer lamps, it shifts toward a deeper, more olive-toned green. It suits studies, dining rooms, hallways, and painted cabinetry where a grounded color is wanted without the heaviness of a very dark green. Pair it with warm off-whites, aged brass, oak, linen, and clay or terracotta accents for a layered, material-led scheme.

What are Little Greene Hopper undertones?

Hopper is a mid-depth, softly muted yellow-green with enough color to read clearly as green rather than gray. Within its green main family, the digital sample shows a gentle yellow bias, which can give it a slightly olive-leaning character rather than a blue or cool forest-green look. Warm artificial light may bring out more of its yellow side, while cool daylight may make the green aspect appear more noticeable.
