Larchmere

SW 6752

Larchmere (SW 6752) is a mid-tone blue with a greenish tint that places it squarely in the blue-green category. At an LRV of 41, it reflects a moderate amount of light and carries enough saturation to serve as a feature color in bathrooms, sunrooms, or kitchens. The green tint softens the blue and gives it an aquatic quality without excessive brightness.

It works alongside Sherwin-Williams Extra White, Alabaster, Rainwashed, Sea Salt, and Waterscape, all of which share a similar cool, green-influenced undertone structure.
