What color is Behr Toffee Crunch?

In sunlit rooms, Toffee Crunch can read lighter and warmer, while lower light brings forward its deeper taupe-brown side. It suits living rooms, dining areas, and hallways where a grounded neutral is wanted without using gray. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal accents, aged brass, natural oak, or cognac leather for a layered, material-focused scheme.

LRV of Toffee Crunch
Toffee Crunch has an LRV of 26.47% and refers to Medium 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 26.47%, 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.
