Levingston Green

CW-490

Levingston Green is a soft sage with an LRV of 57.79, part of the Colonial Williamsburg palette. Its muted yellow-green undertone gives it a slightly warm lean without tipping into olive territory, and a gray cast keeps it restrained. The relatively high reflectance allows it to lighten a room while still reading as a color rather than a neutral.

White Dove or Navajo White complement its warmth on trim, while Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal provide authoritative contrast. Pale Sea Mist and Tranquility extend the green range in softer directions.
