What color is Behr Script Ink?
Behr Script Ink N540-6 is a deep, muted gray with a noticeable cool blue cast. Its medium-dark value gives walls definition without reading as black, especially in rooms with generous natural light. In warmer artificial lighting, the gray may appear softer and slightly less blue, while daylight brings out its cooler character. Use it on a study wall, built-in shelving, or lower cabinetry with crisp white trim, pale gray, and light oak for contrast. Brushed nickel, black metal, charcoal textiles, and clean-lined stone surfaces all suit this restrained blue-gray.
LRV of Script Ink
Script Ink has an LRV of 12.34% 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 12.34%, 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.
