What color is Behr Darkest Grape?
Behr Darkest Grape PPU17-04 is a deep, muted purple-gray with a restrained plum cast. Its low saturation keeps it from reading overly purple, giving walls a shaded, mineral-like appearance rather than a bright berry tone. In daylight, this color can show more of its cool violet-gray base, while warm evening lamps may bring out its subtle grape undertone. Use Darkest Grape on a bedroom wall, study, or dining room for depth, or apply it to cabinetry when paired with soft off-white walls and brushed nickel hardware. Pale oak, charcoal textiles, smoky glass, and dusty mauve accents complement its quiet, dark character.

LRV of Darkest Grape
Darkest Grape has an LRV of 10.94% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 10.94%, 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.
