What color is Behr Almond Roca?
Behr Almond Roca S260-5 is a medium warm tan with a noticeable muted orange-brown cast. Its #b89068 color value gives it enough depth to read clearly on walls without feeling overly dark or heavy. In strong daylight, Almond Roca can look like a sunbaked camel, while lower or warmer indoor light brings out its softer brown and caramel notes. It suits living rooms, dining areas, and entryways where natural wood furniture, woven fibers, and aged brass can reinforce its earthy character. Pair it with creamy off-whites, deep olive greens, charcoal accents, or terracotta textiles for contrast that stays grounded.

LRV of Almond Roca
Almond Roca has an LRV of 31.3% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 31.3%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
