What color is Behr Blissful?

Behr Blissful P560-1 is a very pale lavender with a soft gray cast that keeps it from reading overly sweet or pastel. Its cool violet undertone is most noticeable in clear daylight, while warm bulbs can make the color appear lighter and a little more muted. Blissful is well suited to bedroom, nursery, or bathroom walls where a gentle wash of color is wanted without a strong purple statement. Pair it with clean white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and charcoal accents for contrast. It can also bring a quiet hint of color to a ceiling or a small accent wall.

LRV of Blissful

Blissful has an LRV of 76.56% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 76.56%, 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.
