Sherwin Williams

Reclining Green

SW 6744

Reclining Green is a soft, muted green with an LRV of 63, placing it in the upper-mid range of light reflectance. It carries cool blue undertones that keep it from reading as yellow-green, resulting in a quiet, understated tone. At this reflectance level, it works well on walls in bedrooms, living rooms, or bathrooms where moderate brightness is needed without stark whiteness.

It pairs naturally with Sherwin-Williams Snowbound for a lighter trim contrast, Naval for a deeper anchor color, Iron Ore for grounding accents, and Accessible Beige or Misty to maintain a cool-to-neutral transition across rooms.
