What color is Behr Zero Gravity?
Behr Zero Gravity N450-2 is a light, muted gray with a faint cool cast that keeps it from reading flat or stark. Its slight green-blue influence is subtle, showing most clearly in daylight or beside warmer whites. The soft, low-saturation finish suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and open living areas where a pale neutral is wanted without the brightness of a true white. Pair it with crisp white trim, charcoal accents, pale oak, or brushed nickel for a clean, grounded look. In warmer artificial light, Zero Gravity can appear a touch softer and more neutral, while cooler light brings out its gentle blue-green edge.

LRV of Zero Gravity
Zero Gravity has an LRV of 56.66% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 56.66%, 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.
