What color is Behr Scroll?
Behr Scroll N280-1 is a very light, creamy beige with a noticeable warm peachy-beige cast. Its soft, low-saturation character keeps walls looking bright without the starkness of pure white. In daylight, Scroll can read like a gentle buff neutral, while warmer lamps may bring out more of its buttery, lightly rosy warmth. It suits bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways where a pale backdrop is wanted with more color than a standard off-white. Pair it with natural oak, woven linen, warm white trim, and muted terracotta or clay accents for a grounded palette.

LRV of Scroll
Scroll has an LRV of 76.02% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of 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 76.02%, 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.
