What color is Behr Valley Vineyards?
Behr Valley Vineyards M310-7 is a deep, muted olive-gold with a noticeable brown cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. Its earthy yellow-green undertone reads warmer in afternoon sun, while lower or cooler light can bring out its more subdued khaki side. This shade has enough depth for a dining room, study, or den wall, especially alongside creamy off-whites and warm wood trim. On cabinetry or a painted island, Valley Vineyards pairs well with aged brass, blackened hardware, walnut, and natural stone with beige or olive veining. Use it with lighter neutral walls to let its dense, harvest-toned character stand out.

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 18.11%, 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.
