What color is Behr Perfect Landing?
Behr Perfect Landing S520-3 is a muted blue-gray with a cool, lightly softened cast. Its medium-light depth gives walls visible color without making a room feel dark, while the gray influence keeps the blue from looking overly bright. In daylight, this shade can read as a clean misty blue; under warmer lamps, its gray base becomes more noticeable. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and home offices, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or charcoal accents. Perfect Landing also makes a measured choice for painted cabinetry when paired with light stone counters and simple matte hardware.

LRV of Perfect Landing
Perfect Landing has an LRV of 42.39% 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 42.39%, 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.
