What color is Behr Whispering Waterfall?
Behr Whispering Waterfall BL-W06 is a pale, low-saturation green-gray with a lightly softened, off-white appearance. Its subtle yellow-green cast keeps it from reading icy, while the gray base gives walls a quiet, chalky restraint. In bright daylight, Whispering Waterfall can appear almost like a tinted white; lower or warmer lighting brings out more of its muted sage character. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and living spaces where a light neutral is wanted without using plain white. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, charcoal accents, or natural linen for a grounded, understated palette.

LRV of Whispering Waterfall
Whispering Waterfall has an LRV of 77.37% and refers to Off‑White 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 77.37%, 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.
