Sherwin Williams

Country Squire

SW 6475

Country Squire (SW, #124A42) is a deep blue-green that leans heavily toward forest green, particularly under cooler lighting. With an LRV of just 5, it absorbs nearly all ambient light and reads as a near-dark neutral in low-light conditions. The blue-green balance shifts depending on surrounding light temperature, but the dominant impression is a dense, grounded green.

Pairing it with Sherwin-Williams Shoji White or Wool Skein introduces warmth to offset its coolness. Lighter blue-greens such as Sea Salt or Rainwashed echo its undertone at a much higher value, creating tonal depth without visual competition.

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.
