Sherwin Williams Overt Green SW 6718 is a muted yellow-green with an earthy olive cast and a softly weathered look. Its mid-light depth gives it enough presence for full walls without reading heavy, especially in kitchens, mudrooms, and sunlit living spaces. Warm daylight brings out its golden green side, while cooler light can make the shade appear quieter and slightly more subdued. Pair Overt Green with creamy off-whites, warm clay tones, natural oak, or aged brass for a layered, grounded palette. It also makes a characterful choice for cabinetry or a front door when surrounded by neutral siding or trim.
