What color is Behr Vision Of Light?

Behr Vision Of Light MQ3-07 is a pale, softly warmed neutral with a light beige base and a subtle muted blush cast. Its high lightness keeps walls airy, while the gentle red-beige undertone prevents it from reading stark or icy. In bright daylight, Vision Of Light can appear like a delicate warm off-white; under evening lamps, its rosy-beige character becomes more noticeable. It suits bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways where a quiet, low-contrast backdrop is wanted. Pair it with creamy whites, light oak, linen upholstery, brushed brass, or deeper mushroom-brown accents for definition.

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 66.89%, 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.
