What color is Behr Antigua?
Behr Antigua M460-7 is a deep blue-green with a clear teal cast and enough saturation to hold its own on a large wall. It reads cooler in bright daylight, where its blue side becomes more apparent, while lower or warmer light can draw out its green undertone. Use it in a dining room, study, or powder room for strong color definition without the near-black effect of very dark navy. Antigua also makes a confident choice for painted cabinetry, especially alongside pale oak, warm white walls, matte black hardware, or brushed brass. For contrast, pair it with soft sand, creamy off-white, or muted terracotta accents.

LRV of Antigua
Antigua has an LRV of 10% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 10%, 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.
