A medium, saturated cool yellow that feels intense, Alga Green is distinguished by its olive undertones. With an LRV of 53, it adds character to a space without overpowering it, working well in home offices, mudrooms, and powder rooms. Behr offers Wild Grass as an extremely close match, while Kilz's Better Lime is also very similar. Balance its cool character with warm neutrals on adjacent surfaces, or embrace the chill with blue-gray accents.
