What color is Behr Mustard Field?
Behr Mustard Field HDC-AC-08 is a warm, mid-tone golden yellow with a softened brown cast that keeps it from reading overly bright. The #d8b076 color value gives it a muted, sunbaked look, closer to ochre or dry wheat than a sharp primary yellow. In strong daylight, Mustard Field can appear clearer and more golden, while lower or warmer lighting brings forward its earthy tan undertone. It makes a grounded feature-wall color in dining rooms, kitchens, or entryways, and can also give painted cabinetry a distinctive vintage-leaning finish. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal, deep olive, or terracotta, along with natural oak, aged brass, and woven textures.

LRV of Mustard Field
Mustard Field has an LRV of 46.45% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 46.45%, 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.
