The Behr Piggy Bank wall has a soft and soothing presence that adds a touch of elegance to any room. This subtle hue works well with neutral tones such as off-white, beige, or light gray to create a harmonious color palette. Pairing it with deep blues or greens can bring a rich contrast to the space, while adding accents in rose gold or copper can enhance its warmth. The versatility of Piggy Bank allows for a variety of design options, making it a great choice for creating a relaxing and inviting atmosphere.
Piggy Bank has a clear red undertone based on its position in the color space. We identify undertones by isolating the pure hue (separating it from lightness and saturation), which avoids distortions caused by tints, tones, and shades.
This method is generally more reliable than judging undertones on a white background.

Piggy Bank has an LRV of 68.3% 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 68.3%, 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.
