Sherwin Williams

Barro Verde

SW 9123

Barro Verde from Sherwin-Williams is a warm, earthy mid-tone with subtle yellow undertones that root it in a natural, organic palette. Its LRV of 28 means it absorbs a fair amount of light, giving it a grounded, muted quality suited to living rooms, studies, or rustic kitchens. The hex #9F8E71 reveals a soft olive-khaki character leaning toward warm brown.

It coordinates well with lighter neutrals like Alabaster and Creamy to keep walls from feeling heavy, while deeper greens such as Secret Garden or blues like Naval provide directional contrast. Temperate Taupe offers a tonal bridge within the same warm range.
