What color is Behr Island Hopping?

Behr Island Hopping M180-1 is a very pale peach-beige with a soft blush cast, sitting close to an off-white in overall depth. Its warm undertone keeps white walls from feeling stark, while the low saturation makes the color read clean rather than noticeably pink. In bright daylight, Island Hopping can appear creamy and lightly sun-washed; under warmer bulbs, its peachy side becomes more apparent. It suits bedrooms, powder rooms, and living areas where a gentle alternative to plain ivory is wanted. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, linen upholstery, terracotta pottery, or muted olive accents for a grounded palette.

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 80%, 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.
