What color is Behr Winter In Paris?

Behr Winter In Paris MQ6-03 is a muted blue-green with a noticeable gray cast, giving it a grounded, medium-depth appearance rather than a bright coastal look. Its cool character can read more blue in daylight, while warmer artificial lighting may bring out its softened green-gray side. Use it on bedroom or bathroom walls for color that has presence without becoming overly dark. Winter In Paris also suits painted cabinetry, especially alongside matte black hardware, pale oak, honed marble, or creamy off-white walls. For a cohesive palette, pair this shade with soft warm whites, charcoal accents, and natural linen or leather textures.

LRV of Winter In Paris

Winter In Paris has an LRV of 21.76% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?

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 21.76%, 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.
