Sherwin Williams Shade-Grown SW 6188 is a deep, muted green-gray with a subtle olive cast visible in its #4e5147 color value. Its low saturation keeps it grounded rather than bright, giving walls a quiet, shadowed presence in rooms with ample daylight. In warmer lighting, the yellow-green note may come forward slightly, while cooler light emphasizes its charcoal-gray side. Shade-Grown suits studies, dining rooms, mudrooms, and exterior trim, and it can also make a strong statement on cabinetry. Pair it with warm off-whites, aged brass, natural oak, black accents, or stone finishes with soft beige and gray variation.
