LRV, or Light Reflectance Value, is a measurement that indicates the percentage of visible light reflected from a surface. It is expressed on a scale from 0 to 100, where 0 represents absolute black (no light reflection) and 100 represents pure white (maximum light reflection). LRV is commonly used in design and architecture to help select colors and materials that achieve desired lighting effects and energy efficiency. Higher LRV values can contribute to brighter spaces and can help reduce the need for artificial lighting.
