What color is Behr Final Straw?
Behr Final Straw S320-3 is a light, muted beige with a noticeably warm cast and soft golden-tan undertones. Its low saturation keeps it from reading bright yellow, while the depth gives it more presence than an off-white. In sunny rooms, Final Straw can appear lighter and slightly more golden; under cooler artificial light, it settles into a subdued beige. It is well suited to living room, hallway, and bedroom walls where a gentle neutral backdrop is wanted. Pair it with creamy whites, medium wood tones, woven natural fibers, charcoal accents, or dusty blue-gray textiles for contrast.

LRV of Final Straw
Final Straw has an LRV of 52.88% 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 52.88%, 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.
