Cleveland Green

1525

Cleveland Green is a warm mid-tone neutral with a green undertone and low chroma. Its LRV of 22.63 gives it a grounded, medium-dark appearance. It works in studies, dining rooms, or cabinets where a muted green-brown is needed.

Desert Tan and Oakwood Manor keep the palette warm. White Dove and Horizon lighten nearby areas, while Hale Navy adds contrast.

Cleveland Green in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
