What color is Behr Rosy?

Behr Rosy M120-5 is a muted medium pink with a noticeable mauve cast, sitting between a dusty rose and a softened orchid. Its grayed-down quality keeps the color from reading sugary, while the red-violet undertone gives it more presence than a pale blush. In bright daylight, Rosy can look clearer and pinker; under warmer lamps, it tends to lean deeper and more muted. It makes a strong choice for a bedroom wall, powder room, or painted accent furniture, especially alongside warm white trim, soft charcoal, walnut wood, brushed brass, or creamy linen.

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 33.59%, 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.
