Jocular Green

SW 6736

SW 6042 Jocular Green is a cool green with a minty quality, carrying an LRV of 71, which places it among higher-reflectance pastels suitable for full-room coverage. Its green base leans slightly blue, producing a clean, minty read rather than a botanical one. This makes it functional in bedrooms, nurseries, and laundry rooms where light amplification matters.

Jocular Green coordinates well with Alabaster (SW 7008), Rainwashed (SW 6211), Frosted Emerald (SW 9035), Extra White (SW 7006), and Reclining Green (SW 6744) for fresh-toned layered schemes.

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.
