What color is Behr Seedless Grape?

Behr Seedless Grape M100-2 is a pale, muted lavender with a lightly grayed, powdery appearance. Its low saturation keeps the purple understated, so it can read almost like a tinted neutral on broad walls. In bright daylight, the soft violet note is clearer, while lower or warmer artificial light may bring out its gentle rosy cast. Use it in a bedroom, nursery, or quiet reading area with creamy white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and soft charcoal accents. Seedless Grape also makes a subtle accent for a painted dresser or interior door when paired with cleaner white walls.

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 58.8%, 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.
