Sherwin Williams

Cucuzza Verde

SW 9038

Cucuzza Verde is a muted, earthy green with noticeable yellow undertones that give it a natural, organic quality. Its LRV of 34 places it in the medium range, providing enough depth to create a grounded focal point without darkening a room significantly. The yellow-green base reads as dried sage or late-summer foliage rather than a bright or primary green.

It works well alongside SW Alabaster and SW Accessible Beige as lighter neutral complements. SW Softened Green and SW Svelte Sage extend its earthy palette as analogous options, while SW Naval introduces a strong contrasting anchor.
