What color is Behr At Ease?
Behr At Ease S400-1 is a very light, muted green with a soft gray cast and a gently cool overall read. Its low saturation keeps the color close to an off-white, though the green becomes more noticeable beside crisp white trim or bright neutral furnishings. In north-facing light, At Ease may appear quieter and slightly grayer, while warmer daylight can draw out its subtle leafy tint. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and light-filled living areas where a barely-there wash of color is preferred over plain white. Pair it with warm white, pale oak, linen, brushed nickel, or charcoal details for contrast.

LRV of At Ease
At Ease has an LRV of 82.58% 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 82.58%, 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.
