What color is Behr Sunwashed Brick?
Behr Sunwashed Brick S180-2 is a light, muted peach-beige with a noticeable rosy cast. Its warm undertone keeps it from reading like a plain neutral, while the softened saturation makes it gentle enough for broad wall coverage. In daylight, this shade can appear like a pale clay pink; under warmer bulbs, it may lean more toward creamy blush. Try it in a bedroom, powder room, or dining area with off-white trim, natural oak, linen, and aged brass. Deep terracotta accents, dusty green textiles, and charcoal details can give Sunwashed Brick more definition without overpowering it.

LRV of Sunwashed Brick
Sunwashed Brick has an LRV of 58.7% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 58.7%, 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.
