Laurel Woods

SW 7749

Laurel Woods (SW 7749) is a deep muted green with neutral undertones that reads nearly as a dark olive-charcoal on the wall. At an LRV of 6, it absorbs most available light and is best used as an accent wall color, in studies, or on exterior trim where its depth can be balanced by surrounding lighter surfaces. The neutral undertone prevents it from reading too vivid.

It pairs effectively with Sherwin-Williams Alabaster, Repose Gray, Evergreen Fog, Accessible Beige, and Pure White for necessary contrast.
