What color is Behr Cascade Beige?
Behr Cascade Beige N240-1 is a pale, warm beige with a lightly creamy cast and soft tan undertones. Its high lightness keeps it from feeling heavy, making it a useful wall color for rooms that need warmth without a strong yellow or brown presence. In bright daylight, Cascade Beige can read as an airy off-white; at night, it takes on a more noticeable biscuit-like warmth. Pair it with natural oak, linen upholstery, warm white trim, or muted clay and olive accents. It is especially well suited to living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and open-plan spaces where a gentle neutral backdrop is needed.

LRV of Cascade Beige
Cascade Beige has an LRV of 71.93% and refers to Light colors that reflect most 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 71.93%, 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.
