Hep Green

SW 6704

Hep Green is a vibrant green with a strong yellow undertone and an LRV of 44, reading more as a warm chartreuse-olive than a pure green. Its yellow influence gives it energy while keeping it within an organic, natural range. This tone suits accent walls, creative workspaces, and sunlit rooms where its warmth is reinforced.

Coordinate it with Sherwin-Williams Extra White for crisp contrast and Urbane Bronze for depth. Complementary pairings include Accessible Beige for neutral balance, Aurora Brown for warmth, and Pewter Green for tonal harmony.
