What color is Behr Temple Tile?

Behr Temple Tile N280-6 is a medium, earthy brown with a noticeable golden-tan cast. Its muted saturation keeps it from reading too orange, while the depth gives walls more presence than a standard beige. In bright daylight, Temple Tile can show its warm ochre notes; under softer evening lighting, it settles into a deeper clay-brown. It suits dining rooms, entryways, and studies, especially alongside creamy off-whites, warm charcoal, black metal, and natural wood. Use it on all four walls for a grounded look or on cabinetry and a feature wall where its warm depth can stand out.

LRV of Temple Tile

Temple Tile has an LRV of 26.09% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 26.09%, 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.
