What color is Behr Early Crocus?

Behr Early Crocus PR-W02 is a pale, lightly muted purple with a soft gray cast that keeps it from reading overly sweet or floral. It can look almost like an off-white with a lavender whisper in bright daylight, while north-facing rooms tend to draw out its cooler violet undertone. In the evening, warm lamps soften the color into a gentle dusty mauve. It is well suited to bedrooms, powder rooms, or a quiet reading nook, especially alongside warm white trim, pale oak, linen upholstery, and brushed brass hardware. For more contrast, pair Early Crocus with deep green accents or walnut furniture.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 80.55%, 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.
