What color is Behr Imagination?
Behr Imagination P550-1 is a very light, cool-toned blue with a soft lavender-gray cast. Its pale, low-saturation appearance keeps it airy on broad walls, while the blue becomes a little more noticeable in north-facing rooms or under cooler daylight. In warmer evening lighting, Imagination can read closer to a muted icy gray with a faint periwinkle tint. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and quiet home offices, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or charcoal accents. Use this shade on walls for a gentle wash of color, or on cabinetry in a small bath where a dark finish would feel too heavy.
LRV of Imagination
Imagination has an LRV of 75.41% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of 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 75.41%, 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.
