What color is Behr Hypnotic?
Behr Hypnotic MQ5-19 is a muted blue-gray with a medium depth and a distinctly cool cast. Its gray base keeps the blue from reading overly bright, giving walls a grounded, slightly weathered appearance. In bright daylight, Hypnotic can show more of its blue side, while lower or warmer artificial light may make it appear calmer and grayer. It suits bedrooms, home offices, and bathrooms where a quiet, collected backdrop is wanted. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, charcoal accents, or brushed nickel for a clean, restrained palette.

LRV of Hypnotic
Hypnotic has an LRV of 17.59% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 17.59%, 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.
