What color is Behr Arts And Crafts?
Behr Arts And Crafts PPU4-19 is a muted, medium-deep brown with a warm, earthy cast and a softly weathered appearance. Its low-key saturation keeps it from reading overly orange, while the golden-brown undertone gives it presence in rooms with natural light. On walls, it can make a study, dining room, or entry feel grounded, especially alongside warm white trim and oak, walnut, or aged brass details. In brighter light, this shade shows more of its tawny warmth; in dimmer conditions, it settles into a deeper brown. Arts And Crafts also has enough depth for cabinetry or an exterior door when paired with cream, sand, or charcoal accents.

LRV of Arts And Crafts
Arts And Crafts has an LRV of 14.28% 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 14.28%, 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.
