What color is Behr Tsunami?

Behr Tsunami S450-7 is a deep, stormy navy with a noticeable blue-green cast that keeps it from reading as a flat near-black. In bright daylight, its oceanic blue side is clearer, while north-facing rooms can make it appear darker and more slate-like. It has enough depth for a dramatic dining room, study, or built-in cabinetry, especially when balanced with warm white trim and pale oak floors. Brass hardware, cognac leather, natural linen, and veined gray stone all give this shade some warmth without competing with it. On an exterior, Tsunami can make a front door or shutters feel grounded against creamy siding or weathered brick.

LRV of Tsunami

Tsunami has an LRV of 9% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect lightWhy 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 9%, 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.
