What color is Behr Heritage Park?

Behr Heritage Park PPU12-18 is a muted mid-tone green-gray with a lightly cool, weathered cast. Its low saturation keeps the green understated, so it reads more like softened foliage or aged painted wood than a bright botanical hue. In north-facing rooms, the gray-blue side may become more noticeable, while warmer daylight can bring out its quiet olive-green character. Use it on walls in a study, mudroom, or bedroom where a grounded color is wanted without making the room feel dark. Heritage Park pairs well with warm white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, charcoal accents, and natural linen textures.

LRV of Heritage Park

Heritage Park has an LRV of 16.48% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little light. Why LRV is important?

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 16.48%, 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.
