What color is Behr Aria Ivory?

In daylight, Aria Ivory reads airy and lightly creamy; under warmer lamps, its blushy beige undertone becomes more apparent. It suits bedrooms, living rooms, and dining areas where a white with a little more color feels appropriate. Pair it with natural oak, woven linen, terracotta accents, muted clay tones, or deep brown-black details for contrast.

What are Behr Aria Ivory undertones?
Aria Ivory is a near-white, very muted creamy off-white. The HEX sample has a subtle yellow-orange bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear yellow-orange. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.

LRV of Aria Ivory
Aria Ivory has an LRV of 83.26% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all 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 83.26%, 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.
