What color is Behr Chic Peach?
Behr Chic Peach HDC-CT-04 is a light, muted peach-beige with a noticeable warm cast and soft tan undertones. Its restrained saturation keeps it from reading like a sugary pastel, giving walls a gentle wash of color instead. In bright daylight, Chic Peach can appear lighter and closer to a creamy sand tone, while evening light tends to bring out its warmer peach presence. It suits bedrooms, dining rooms, and living areas where a pale warm neutral feels more interesting than standard beige. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, woven linen, terracotta pottery, or deep olive accents for contrast.

LRV of Chic Peach
Chic Peach has an LRV of 54.56% 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 54.56%, 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.
