What color is Behr Invitation Gold?

Behr Invitation Gold MQ4-06 is a mid-depth golden brown with clear ochre warmth and a softly muted finish. Its #a6773f color value gives it an earthy, sunbaked look rather than a bright yellow-gold appearance. In strong daylight, Invitation Gold can read warmer and more golden, while lower or cooler light brings out its brown, slightly olive-leaning depth. It suits dining rooms, studies, entryways, and exterior accents where a grounded warm color feels appropriate. Pair it with creamy off-whites, deep charcoal, weathered wood, black metal, or muted blue-green accents for contrast. On a full wall it creates noticeable warmth; on cabinetry, a front door, or built-in shelving, it makes a more concentrated statement.

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 21.28%, 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.
