Sherwin Williams

Starboard

SW 6755

Starboard is a deep, saturated blue-green with strong green undertones, carrying an LRV of 11, which makes it a low-reflectance color that reads as quite dark in most lighting conditions. Its hex value #016C4F confirms a teal-to-emerald character. This shade is suitable for accent walls, front doors, cabinetry, or statement furniture where a concentrated, deep tone is intended.

It coordinates with Sherwin-Williams Alabaster for a high-contrast light pairing, Eider White for a softer trim option, Naval for a deep analogous scheme, Tame Teal for tonal blue-green layering, and Rainwashed for a lighter cool-green complement.
