What color is Behr Lingonberry Punch?
Behr Lingonberry Punch M150-6 is a muted medium red with a dusty rose cast, sitting between berry pink and softened brick. Its moderate depth gives it enough presence for a dining room, powder room, or front door without reading as overly bright. In direct daylight, the color can look clearer and rosier, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its earthy red character. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, aged brass, or charcoal accents for contrast. Lingonberry Punch also makes a confident choice for cabinetry or a single accent wall where a full, grounded color is wanted.

LRV of Lingonberry Punch
Lingonberry Punch has an LRV of 16.03% 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 16.03%, 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.
