What color is Behr Sounds Of Nature?
Behr Sounds Of Nature S390-1 is a very light, muted green with a soft gray cast and a faint yellow-green warmth. Its low saturation keeps the color quiet on broad walls, where it can read nearly off-white in bright daylight while showing more of its green tint in shaded areas. Use it in bedrooms, bathrooms, or a light-filled kitchen for a subtle wash of color that does not overpower trim or furnishings. Sounds Of Nature pairs well with warm white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, and charcoal or deep olive accents. It is best suited to walls or cabinetry when a gentle, barely-there green is preferred over a crisp white.

LRV of Sounds Of Nature
Sounds Of Nature has an LRV of 75.65% 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 75.65%, 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.
