What color is Behr River Rocks?
Behr River Rocks N130-6 is a muted, medium-dark brown with a noticeable dusty rose cast that keeps it from reading flat or overly earthy. Its grayed quality gives the color a softened, weathered look, while the underlying red-brown warmth becomes more apparent in afternoon sun and warm artificial light. In cooler daylight, River Rocks can appear more like a restrained mauve-taupe. It has enough depth for a dining room, den, or bedroom wall, especially when paired with warm white trim and natural oak. For cabinetry or an accent wall, combine it with matte black hardware, aged brass, linen upholstery, and cream stone to emphasize its grounded character.

LRV of River Rocks

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 14.85%, 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.
