What color is Sherwin Williams Perennial Green?

Sherwin Williams Perennial Green SW 2932 is a deep, earthy green with a lightly blue-leaning cast that keeps it from reading too yellow. Its dark value gives walls a grounded, enveloping look, while daylight brings out the clearer green within the color. Perennial Green is especially effective in dining rooms, studies, mudrooms, and on kitchen or built-in cabinetry where its depth can define architectural details. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, aged brass, or creamy stone for contrast, or use charcoal and black accents for a more shadowy palette. In low lighting, this shade can appear nearly black-green, so it benefits from layered lamps or brighter adjacent finishes.

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 5.52%, 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.
