Hummingbird Green

MQ6-48

Hummingbird Green is a muted medium green with an olive-brown base. It feels natural and shaded. Hummingbird Green can suit a mudroom, home office, or exterior shutters where green should be grounded.

Across wall space, it will deepen away from windows. Let Hummingbird Green lean on warm white paint on trim plus pale oak around it. Black hardware adds structure. In a room with little daylight, use stronger lamps before deciding on all four walls.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
