What color is Behr Royal Fortune?
Behr Royal Fortune S560-5 is a muted medium blue-gray with a noticeably cool, slate-like cast. Its softened saturation keeps it from reading as bright blue, while the gray base gives it enough weight for a bedroom, office, or den. In daylight, this shade can show more of its dusty blue character; under warmer evening lighting, it may appear closer to a softened charcoal gray. Royal Fortune pairs well with crisp white trim, pale gray upholstery, black metal details, and light oak or walnut wood. Use it on full walls for a grounded backdrop, or on cabinetry and built-ins where its subdued blue tone can add definition without becoming overly bold.

LRV of Royal Fortune
Royal Fortune has an LRV of 19.35% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 19.35%, 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.
