Behr
Hilo Bay
PPU15-09
Painted on a wall, it reads more blue than gray, especially beside warm trim. Hilo Bay suits crisp white and walnut. In rooms with weak daylight, add lamps so the color keeps its depth. Beige carpet may make it look duller.
Color Codes
Hilo Bay in Different Light
Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV
53.1LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
