What color is Behr Dream Sunset?
Behr Dream Sunset PPU17-14 is a muted dusty rose with a noticeable gray cast, giving its pink-purple base a softened, weathered appearance. Its mid-tone depth keeps it from reading sugary, while the low saturation makes it feel more grounded than a typical blush. In warm afternoon light, Dream Sunset can show a little more rosy warmth; cooler daylight tends to bring forward its mauve-gray side. It suits bedroom walls, powder rooms, and a painted dresser or built-in where a subdued color is wanted without going too dark. Pair it with soft cream, warm taupe, charcoal, aged brass, or light oak for a palette that lets the color’s quiet mauve character stand out.

LRV of Dream Sunset
Dream Sunset has an LRV of 26.85% 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 26.85%, 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.
