What color is Behr Orange Flambe?
Behr Orange Flambe MQ1-28 is a muted, earthy orange with noticeable brown and clay-like undertones. Its medium depth keeps it from reading as bright citrus orange; instead, it has the grounded look of fired terracotta softened by a dusty cast. In bright natural light, Orange Flambe can appear warmer and more coppery, while lower or cooler lighting brings out its subdued brown base. Use it on a dining-room accent wall, a powder room, or painted cabinetry where its warmth can add definition without overwhelming the room. It pairs well with creamy off-whites, warm taupes, charcoal accents, aged brass, natural oak, and textured linen.

LRV of Orange Flambe
Orange Flambe has an LRV of 20.81% 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 20.81%, 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.
