Gloucester Green reads as crisp and architectural — strong in modern spaces, with natural fixed elements (chrome, stone, glass), or as a quiet anchor. At LRV 20 it reads as a deep, enveloping shade — best on accent walls, dining rooms, and spaces where atmosphere matters more than reflected light. Skip it if you want a cozy, warm room — cool neutrals can feel sterile under warm bulbs or in low light.

Gloucester Green Technical Profile
What color is PPG Gloucester Green (30GG 20/128)? It's a deep cool gray — hex #63837A, LRV 20. The closest cross-brand equivalent to Gloucester Green is Sherwin-Williams Juniper — a very close match, with Vista Paint Mountain Meadow and Hirshfield's Mountain Meadow also close. With an LRV of 20, Gloucester Green creates a dramatic, enveloping mood — best on accent walls, dining rooms, and intimate spaces where atmosphere matters more than reflected light. As a cool neutral, Gloucester Green pairs with cool whites for trim, gray-toned or rift-cut oak floors, and brushed nickel or polished chrome hardware. Black accents and natural greenery add contrast. As a deeper neutral, Gloucester Green reads as a confident anchor — strongest on accent walls, cabinetry, and moody whole rooms that get enough natural light to keep it from going flat. Cool neutrals hold their crisp quality under 4000K+ daylight bulbs. Under 2700K warm light they soften considerably — particularly true for any blue or green undertone. Deeper neutrals can read close to black in low light, so preview Gloucester Green in the room's actual evening lighting, not just at midday.
