What color is Behr Ballet White?
Behr Ballet White PPU3-04 is a very light off-white with a gentle warm beige cast rather than a crisp, stark-white finish. Its soft creaminess is especially noticeable beside bright white trim, while daylight can make it appear lighter and more neutral. In rooms with warm bulbs or late-afternoon sun, this shade may take on a slightly deeper buff tone. Use it on walls in living rooms, bedrooms, or hallways where a pale backdrop is wanted without the coolness of pure white. It pairs naturally with warm oak, linen upholstery, brushed brass, muted clay, and creamy white accents.
LRV of Ballet White
Ballet White has an LRV of 81.1% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of 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 81.1%, 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.
