What color is Behr Summer House?
Behr Summer House P430-1 is a light, airy blue-green with a soft mint cast and a gently cool character. Its pale value keeps it from reading overly colorful, so it can give walls a washed, open look rather than a strong pastel effect. In daylight, Summer House is likely to show its clearer aqua-green side, while warmer artificial light can make it appear softer and slightly more muted. It suits bathrooms, laundry rooms, sunrooms, and bedrooms, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, or brushed nickel. For contrast, pair this shade with charcoal accents, deep navy textiles, or warm terracotta details.

LRV of Summer House
Summer House has an LRV of 75.84% 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 75.84%, 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.
