St. Patty's Day

614

St. Patty's Day is a saturated blue-green with a noticeable cool lean, sitting at an LRV of 47.37, which places it in the mid-range for light reflectance. The blue undertone distinguishes it from straightforward greens, pulling it toward teal territory without fully committing.

On walls, it reads brighter in natural light and slightly deeper under incandescent sources. It coordinates well with Simply White for clean contrast, Revere Pewter as a grounding neutral, and Hale Navy for a tonal blue pairing. Palladian Blue and Wythe Blue also work alongside it in cool-leaning schemes.

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.
