Sherwin Williams

Great Green

SW 6430

Great Green is a medium green with distinct yellow undertones that give it an earthy, herbaceous quality. Its LRV of 43 places it in the mid-range, providing enough depth for dining rooms, sunrooms, and kitchen accent walls without darkening the space significantly. Accessible Beige and Shoji White offer warm neutral trim options.

Naval creates a strong complementary contrast, while Urbane Bronze works well on fixtures. Baize Green and Eco Green serve as tonal neighbors for layered green schemes.
