Sherwin Williams

Carnelian

SW 7580

Wispy Green (Benjamin Moore, #EBF3CB) is a very light, warm green with distinct yellow undertones suggestive of lemon and lime. At an LRV of 83.27, it reflects a high proportion of ambient light, functioning almost as a tinted white in well-lit rooms. The yellow-green cast keeps it from reading as cool or clinical, instead giving walls a faintly warm, fresh tone.

It blends easily with White Dove and Cloud White for a near-neutral scheme. Quiet Moments introduces a complementary blue-green shift, while Hawthorne Yellow amplifies the warm undertone.
