What color is Behr White Wool?
Behr White Wool GR-W01 is a soft off-white with a noticeable beige-gray cast, giving it the look of unbleached wool rather than a crisp gallery white. It reads warm without turning yellow, and its muted quality can make stark trim or bright furnishings feel less harsh. In north-facing rooms, White Wool may show more of its gentle gray side, while afternoon sun and warm lamps bring out its creamy, earthy undertone. It suits living room walls, bedrooms, and open-plan spaces where a plain white would feel too sharp. Pair it with natural oak, flax-colored linen, honed stone, aged brass, or deep green accents for a grounded, lived-in palette.
LRV of White Wool
White Wool has an LRV of 85.48% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all 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 85.48%, 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.
