What color is Dulux Brooklyn Nights 3?
Dulux Brooklyn Nights 3 10RB 36/082 is a muted mid-tone grey with a noticeable blue-violet cast. Its soft, low-saturation character keeps it from reading overly blue, while the slight lavender influence gives the colour more interest than a standard cool grey. In bright daylight, Brooklyn Nights 3 can appear cleaner and airier; under warm lamps, its violet undertone becomes more apparent. It suits bedroom, study, or hallway walls, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and charcoal details. For a more defined look, use this shade on cabinetry or a single accent wall with off-white walls and natural linen textiles.

LRV of Brooklyn Nights 3
Brooklyn Nights 3 has an LRV of 33.83% 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 33.83%, 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.
