What color is Behr Tuscan Herbs?
Behr Tuscan Herbs S400-6 is a medium-depth muted green with a soft gray cast and a subtle earthy, yellow-green lean. Its low-saturation character keeps it from reading bright, giving walls a grounded, leafy look that feels especially natural beside wood. In bright daylight, this shade can appear a little fresher and greener, while lower or warmer light brings out its quieter olive side. Tuscan Herbs suits dining rooms, studies, mudrooms, and kitchen cabinetry where a deeper color can add definition without making the room feel overly dark. Pair it with warm white trim, oatmeal linen, aged brass, terracotta accents, and medium oak for a layered, material-driven palette.

LRV of Tuscan Herbs
Tuscan Herbs has an LRV of 20% 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 20%, 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.
