What color is Behr Brocade?
Behr Brocade MQ4-29 is a muted blue-violet with a soft lavender cast and a lightly grayed finish. Its medium-light depth gives it more presence than a pale lilac, while the cool undertone keeps it from reading overly sweet. In daylight, Brocade can show a clearer periwinkle-blue character; warmer evening bulbs tend to bring forward its violet side. It suits bedroom walls, a reading nook, or painted built-ins where a calm but noticeable color is wanted. Pair it with crisp white trim, charcoal accents, pale oak, or brushed nickel for a clean, grounded contrast.

LRV of Brocade
Brocade has an LRV of 27.89% and refers to Medium 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 27.89%, 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.
