What color is Behr Brown Teepee?
Behr Brown Teepee 700D-4 is a muted mid-tone beige with a clear warm cast and a soft, earthy appearance. Its blend of tan and subtle rosy-brown notes keeps it from reading flat or yellow. In bright daylight, this color can appear lighter and more sandy, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its deeper clay-like character. Use it on living room, bedroom, or hallway walls where a grounded neutral is needed without the starkness of pale beige. Brown Teepee pairs naturally with creamy off-whites, deep brown wood, aged brass, terracotta, and charcoal accents.

LRV of Brown Teepee
Brown Teepee has an LRV of 40.77% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 40.77%, 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.
