Glidden

Breezeway

PPG11-21

Breezeway is a light yellow-green neutral with a muted herbal undertone that feels softer than typical sage. Kitchens, sunrooms, or bedrooms can use it when a botanical note should stay quiet. The color is light enough for whole walls and sits well beside natural wood.

Try it with rattan, warm white trim, or soapstone. Green warms through softly here.

Breezeway 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.

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.
