What color is Behr Rye Bread?
Behr Rye Bread PPU8-10 is a muted light beige with a noticeable warm, sandy cast. Its softened yellow-tan undertone keeps it from reading stark or gray, while the low saturation gives it a gently weathered look. In bright daylight, Rye Bread can appear airy and creamier; under warmer evening lighting, it takes on more of a mellow biscuit tone. It suits living room, bedroom, and hallway walls where a quiet neutral is wanted without the coolness of greige. Pair it with soft white trim, natural oak, woven linen, aged brass, or deeper brown accents for a grounded palette.

LRV of Rye Bread
Rye Bread has an LRV of 52.19% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half 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 52.19%, 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.
