What color is Behr Splendor And Pride?
Behr Splendor And Pride MQ5-47 is a medium blue with a softened, slightly muted character rather than a sharp primary-blue look. Its cool blue cast is clear, while the moderate depth keeps it substantial enough for a feature wall, built-in shelving, or painted cabinetry. In bright daylight, this color can read cleaner and more open; lower or warmer indoor light may bring out its grayer, more subdued side. Use Splendor And Pride with crisp white trim for contrast, or pair it with pale gray, weathered oak, brushed nickel, and charcoal details for a layered palette. It is especially well suited to bedrooms, home offices, and reading nooks where a deeper wall color can add definition without making the room feel overly dark.

LRV of Splendor And Pride
Splendor And Pride has an LRV of 15.98% 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 15.98%, 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.
