What color is Behr Orchid Haze?
Behr Orchid Haze S110-2 is a light, muted pink-lilac with a softly grayed cast that keeps it from reading overly sweet. Its pale value gives walls a gentle wash of color, while the subtle violet undertone is likely to show more clearly in cooler daylight. In warmer artificial light, Orchid Haze can appear closer to a dusty blush with a hint of mauve. It suits bedrooms, powder rooms, or a quiet sitting area, especially alongside soft white trim, warm gray textiles, pale oak, and brushed brass. For a more defined look, pair this shade with charcoal accents or deep plum details.

LRV of Orchid Haze
Orchid Haze has an LRV of 61.49% and refers to Light colors that reflect most 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 61.49%, 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.
