Sherwin Williams

March Wind

SW 7668

Winter Ice (hex #DAE4E2) is a light blue-green with cool, muted undertones that lean slightly toward aqua without fully committing to either blue or green. At an LRV of 75.12, it reflects a substantial amount of light, keeping rooms bright and open. The color reads as a soft, washed-out teal under most lighting conditions.

It coordinates well with Benjamin Moore's Quiet Moments and Pale Oak for a restrained cool-neutral scheme, while Evening Dove or Hale Navy can anchor it as deeper accent tones. Sea Salt offers a close tonal neighbor for layered wall treatments.
