Sherwin Williams

Moonraker

SW 6701

Moonraker is a soft muted green with yellow undertones, posting an LRV of 76. At this high reflectance, it reads as a pale butter-gold with a green-tinged warmth rather than a definitive green. The yellow influence dominates in most lighting conditions, making it function closer to a warm pastel.

It suits kitchens, breakfast nooks, and sunlit living areas. Moonraker coordinates naturally with SW Alabaster, SW Anjou Pear, SW Compatible Cream, SW Rustic City, and SW Wheat Grass, fitting within warm earthy and botanical palettes.
