Sherwin Williams

Aquaverde

SW 9051

Aquaverde from Sherwin-Williams is a muted aquatic blue with soft green undertones, sitting at hex #A3C0BD. Its LRV of 49 delivers moderate brightness, offering enough clarity to open up a space without pushing into pastel territory. The green inflection distinguishes it from straight blues, lending a softened, coastal character that becomes more pronounced under natural light.

It aligns well with creamy whites like Alabaster for contrast, while analogous tones such as Rainwashed or Window Pane build a cohesive, airy palette. Deeper navy or charcoal accents can be used to anchor its understated cool temperature.
