What color is Behr Arrowhead Lake?
Behr Arrowhead Lake PPU14-01 is a medium blue-gray with a muted, slate-like cast that keeps it grounded rather than overly nautical or bright. Its cool blue presence is softened by gray, so it can read as a dusty steel blue in bright daylight and deepen toward a quieter blue-gray in lower light. Use it on bedroom or home-office walls when you want color without the intensity of a clear cobalt or navy. It also has enough depth for painted cabinetry, a front door, or an accent wall paired with crisp white trim. Natural oak, weathered wood, brushed nickel, charcoal textiles, and soft off-whites complement this shade particularly well.

LRV of Arrowhead Lake
Arrowhead Lake has an LRV of 15.44% 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 15.44%, 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.
