What color is Behr Mission Control?
Behr Mission Control N530-5 is a medium gray with a subtle cool, blue-leaning cast and a softly muted finish. Its low saturation keeps it from reading icy, while the mid-depth tone gives walls more presence than a pale gray. In daylight, it can appear clean and gently blue-gray; warmer artificial light may bring it closer to a balanced charcoal-gray. Use it in offices, bedrooms, or modern living rooms alongside crisp white trim, black metal, pale oak, and concrete or stone finishes. Mission Control also makes a grounded option for cabinetry or an exterior accent when paired with lighter neutral siding or walls.
LRV of Mission Control
Mission Control has an LRV of 22.82% and refers to Medium 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 22.82%, 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.
