What color is Behr Tahitian Breeze?
Behr Tahitian Breeze P450-2 is a pale aqua with a clear blue-green cast and a lightly softened, airy appearance. Its high lightness keeps it from feeling heavy, while the cool undertone gives walls a fresh, water-washed look. In bright daylight, Tahitian Breeze reads cleaner and a touch bluer; warmer bulbs can bring out its gentler green side. It suits bathrooms, laundry rooms, sunrooms, and coastal-inspired bedrooms, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, and brushed nickel. Use this shade across all four walls for a light-filled effect, or on cabinetry and a painted vanity for a quieter splash of color.

LRV of Tahitian Breeze
Tahitian Breeze has an LRV of 69.83% 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 69.83%, 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.
