Behr

Creamy Mushroom

PPU5-13

Creamy Mushroom by Behr is a neutral beige with subtle taupe and warm gray undertones. At an LRV of 74.8, it reflects a good amount of light while maintaining enough body to avoid looking washed out. The warm undertone stays balanced, without shifting noticeably toward yellow or pink under most lighting conditions.

This color works well for whole-room application in living areas, bedrooms, and open-concept spaces. It pairs naturally with Behr Wheat Bread for a tonal warm scheme, Dolphin Fin for a cooler complement, Ultra Pure White for trim, Swiss Coffee for ceiling continuity, and Blueprint as a darker accent.
