What color is Behr Evening White?

Behr Evening White N460-1 is a light, low-saturation gray with a faint green cast that keeps it from reading as a plain white. Its soft, muted appearance suits walls in bedrooms, bathrooms, and open living areas where a nearly neutral backdrop is wanted without stark contrast. In cooler daylight, the gray-green note may be more noticeable, while warmer bulbs can make the shade look gentler and slightly softer. Pair Evening White with crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, charcoal accents, or muted blue-green textiles for a restrained, layered palette.

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 69.73%, 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.
