Copen Blue

SW 0068

Copen Blue (SW) is a muted green with blue undertones, identified by hex #C2CCC4. It carries an LRV of 59, placing it in the upper-mid range for light reflectance, which allows it to brighten rooms without appearing stark. The blue undertone shifts it away from typical sage greens.

Recommended Sherwin-Williams pairings include White Duck, Alabaster, Naval, Tradewind, and Sea Salt. Copen Blue functions effectively in bedrooms, bathrooms, and living spaces where a muted, green-blue presence is intended without strong color saturation.
