What color is Behr Ivory Palace?

Behr Ivory Palace PPU10-14 is a pale, softly warmed off-white with a muted ivory cast rather than a crisp, bright-white look. Its low-saturation beige-yellow undertone keeps walls from feeling stark, especially beside white trim or cool gray furnishings. In daylight, this shade reads light and airy; under warm lamps, its creamy side becomes more noticeable. Ivory Palace suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a gentle neutral backdrop is wanted without adding much visual weight. Pair it with natural oak, woven linen, matte black hardware, or deeper olive and charcoal accents for contrast.

What are Behr Ivory Palace undertones?

Ivory Palace is a near-white, very muted cream. The HEX sample has a subtle yellow bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear yellow. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.

LRV of Ivory Palace

Ivory Palace has an LRV of 81.92% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of 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 81.92%, 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.
