What color is Sherwin Williams Organic Green?

Sherwin Williams Organic Green SW 6732 is a mid-tone, muted green with a noticeable yellow cast that keeps it closer to leafy garden green than blue-leaning sage. Its softened saturation gives it enough color for a full room without reading overly bright, especially on walls in kitchens, mudrooms, or casual dining areas. In warm artificial light, Organic Green can take on a slightly earthier, olive-tinged look, while daylight brings out its cleaner green character. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm wood cabinetry, natural linen, and aged brass for a grounded palette. It also makes a strong choice for painted built-ins, a pantry door, or exterior shutters against a light neutral façade.

LRV of Organic Green

Organic Green has an LRV of 35.36% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?

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 35.36%, 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.
