Sherwin Williams

Romaine

SW 6730

Romaine is a light, warm-leaning green from Sherwin-Williams with yellow undertones that give it a soft, leafy character. Its LRV of 60 places it in the upper-middle range of light reflectance, so it reads as a clearly pigmented color while keeping rooms bright. The yellow base prevents it from appearing cool or gray, distinguishing it from sage or mint greens.

It works well in kitchens, bathrooms, and sunrooms. Sherwin-Williams Spare White and White Mint coordinate as lighter tonal companions, Aloof Gray provides a neutral counterbalance, and Acacia Haze and Rainstorm offer deeper contrast.
