What color is Behr Peche?
Behr Peche P220-2 is a light peach with a creamy, sun-warmed cast that keeps it soft rather than sugary. Its pale value makes it especially suited to walls in bedrooms, nurseries, breakfast nooks, or powder rooms where a little warmth is welcome without making the room feel dark. In direct daylight, Peche can read as a clean, airy peach, while lower or warmer artificial light brings forward its gentle apricot-beige character. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, woven cane, and linen upholstery for a relaxed, lightly layered look. For contrast, try muted sage, dusty blue, or deep terracotta accents instead of stark black.

LRV of Peche
Peche has an LRV of 75.68% and refers to Off‑White 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 75.68%, 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.
