What color is Behr Rio Rust?

Behr Rio Rust S190-6 is a mid-depth, muted clay brown with noticeable warm red and earthy orange undertones. It reads richer and more grounded than a typical beige, while its softened saturation keeps it from feeling overly bold on a full wall. In bright daylight, Rio Rust can show its sunbaked terracotta character; under lower or warmer artificial light, it settles into a deeper brown. Use it in dining rooms, entryways, or studies with creamy off-whites, warm taupe, and natural oak. Matte black metal, aged brass, leather, and woven textiles give this shade a particularly cohesive setting.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 17.33%, 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.
