Aragon Green

PPG1227-5

Aragon Green is a vivid medium green with a cool blue influence. The yellow-green snap shows first. Use it on a pantry door, garden room wall, or furniture piece when the space needs a confident accent.

Across every wall, the color can overpower delicate fabrics. Balance it with white, black iron, or natural oak. In sun, the green looks fresher. In shadow, it settles closer to emerald.
