What color is Behr Westminster?
Behr Westminster N270-6 is a muted, mid-depth brown with warm tawny and clay-like undertones. Its softened, earthy character keeps it from reading as overly dark or heavily red, making it a grounded choice for living rooms, dens, and dining spaces. In bright daylight, Westminster can appear like a warm weathered tan, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its deeper brown presence. Pair it with creamy off-whites, aged brass, natural oak, and linen upholstery for a layered, material-rich look. It has enough depth for cabinetry or an accent wall, especially alongside pale plaster tones or soft olive accents.

LRV of Westminster
Westminster has an LRV of 22.43% 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 22.43%, 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.
