Sherwin Williams

Rockweed

SW 2735

Rockweed is a very dark, warm-toned neutral from Sherwin-Williams with an LRV of 4, making it one of the darker options in the palette. It reads as a deep brown with subtle green undertones that emerge under certain lighting. Because it absorbs nearly all light, it is best used in well-lit spaces or as an accent.

It can serve as a wall color in libraries, powder rooms, or on feature walls. Sherwin-Williams Alabaster and Creamy provide sharp contrast for trim, Naval and Rookwood Red complement its depth, and Accessible Beige offers a mid-tone bridge.
