What color is Behr Smokey Wings?
Behr Smokey Wings PPU26-07 is a light-to-mid-tone gray with a restrained warm cast, created by its faint beige and taupe undertones. Its low saturation keeps it from reading overly brown, while the slight warmth prevents the color from feeling stark or icy. In north-facing or cool artificial light, Smokey Wings can appear like a soft, weathered gray; warmer daylight and incandescent bulbs bring out its subtle greige side. It suits living room walls, bedrooms, hallways, and open-plan spaces where a quiet neutral is needed without the brightness of off-white. Pair it with creamy white trim, natural oak, linen upholstery, charcoal accents, or matte black hardware for contrast.

LRV of Smokey Wings
Smokey Wings has an LRV of 37.94% and refers to Medium 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 37.94%, 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.
