What color is Behr Tibetan Temple?
Behr Tibetan Temple PPU1-03 is a muted, medium-depth mauve taupe with a softly weathered cast. Its red and brown undertones keep it warmer than a typical gray, while the low saturation prevents it from reading overly rosy. In bright daylight, this color can appear like a dusty mushroom shade with a faint plum note; lower, warmer light brings out more of its brown-rose character. It gives bedrooms, dining rooms, and powder rooms a grounded backdrop without making them feel dark. Pair Tibetan Temple with creamy off-whites, charcoal accents, aged brass, walnut, and natural linen for a layered, earthy palette.
LRV of Tibetan Temple
Tibetan Temple has an LRV of 14.59% 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 14.59%, 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.
