Sherwin-Williams and HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams named Celery, a soft green with yellow undertones, their 2027 Color of the Year. The shade is part of the company’s Rewild forecast and comes with a palette of neutrals, deeper colors and brighter accents.
Sherwin-Williams and HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams have named Celery, a soft, muted green with yellow undertones, their 2027 Color of the Year. The selection puts a lighter, less saturated green at the center of the companies’ annual color forecast, with a coordinated palette intended to pair it with neutrals, deeper greens and more expressive accent shades.
Celery is identified as SW 6421 by Sherwin-Williams and HGSW6421 by HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams. The source describes it as an herbal yellow-green: warmer than a cool green, but muted enough to keep its appearance relatively soft. The companies present it as a way to introduce color without making a room feel dominated by a strong hue.
The shade was selected by Sherwin-Williams’ Trendsight Team and is included in the company’s 2027 Colormix Trend Forecast, Rewild. Its companion palette spans White Flour and Woven Wicker as neutral options; Artichoke, Cocoon and Georgian Bay for more depth; and Kirsch Red, Plum Brown, Potentially Purple and Cosmos as contrasting or softer accent choices. The palette also features Minwax Pickled Oak, identified in the report as Minwax’s 2027 Color of the Year.
Celery is available through Sherwin-Williams stores and through HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams at Lowe’s, under the respective product codes. The announcement does not specify a launch date beyond the 2027 designation or provide pricing information.
A Softer Green for Home Palettes
The selection gives homeowners and designers a specific, commercially available shade around which to plan a room or broader palette. Compared with a more saturated green, Celery offers a quieter option for people who want color but do not want it to dominate a space. Its yellow undertone also gives it a warmer character than a cooler, blue-leaning green, according to the source’s description.
The broader relevance is less about a single paint color setting a universal design direction and more about what Sherwin-Williams is choosing to foreground in its own forecast. The company frames the shade as connected to wellness, balance and nature, while the accompanying colors make clear that it is meant to work in combinations rather than stand alone. Those are the company’s stated design intentions, not evidence that consumers have adopted the color or that it will become a wider industry trend.

Celery Within the Rewild Forecast
Sherwin-Williams’ announcement places Celery within Rewild, its 2027 Colormix Trend Forecast. The report describes the forecast as responding to interest in interiors that feel comfortable and lived-in rather than meticulously styled, using colors drawn from the natural world without relying only on literal botanical motifs.
The company contrasts Celery with the deeper, moodier greens that, according to the report, have been prominent in interiors in recent years. Celery’s muted green base and yellow warmth are presented as a different expression of nature-inspired color: lighter and more understated, while still intended to add warmth. The supplied material does not cite sales figures, consumer research or a specific measure of how widely those darker greens have been used.
The forecast’s palette extends the concept beyond paint. It pairs Celery with wood stain and colors that range from subdued neutrals to red, brown and purple accents. That range positions the shade as one part of a larger decorating scheme, with options for both low-contrast combinations and stronger color contrasts.
Consumer Response and Pricing Remain Unknown
The announcement and source report do not provide pricing, sales projections or consumer testing for Celery. They also do not establish how the paint will perform across different lighting conditions, finishes or room types; the description of its warmth and airy quality is qualitative. The source presents wellness and connection as reasons behind the selection, but does not include independent research showing that the color itself improves mental health or well-being.
It is also unclear whether Celery will gain broad use beyond the company’s own forecast and retail channels. A Color of the Year announcement indicates a brand’s chosen direction for the year, not a guarantee of wider adoption by homeowners, designers or other paint companies.
Availability Through Two Retail Channels
Readers interested in the shade can look for SW 6421 at Sherwin-Williams stores or HGSW6421 through HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams at Lowe’s. The announcement identifies those channels but gives no further schedule for in-store displays, sample availability or related product releases.
Any assessment of Celery’s reach will depend on what happens after the announcement, including whether customers use it on its own or with the Rewild palette. Sherwin-Williams has not provided adoption figures or a later milestone in the supplied material, so the current confirmed development is the selection and availability of the color—not its eventual popularity.
