What color is Behr Raspberry Crush?
Behr Raspberry Crush M120-7 is a muted, mid-depth berry tone with a dusky rose-purple cast. Its #875169 value gives it a softened, slightly smoky appearance rather than the bright intensity of a true raspberry red. In daylight, this color can read as a grounded mauve-burgundy, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its richer reddish-plum side. Use Raspberry Crush on a dining room wall, powder room, or built-in cabinetry where its depth can hold its own. Pair it with warm white trim, charcoal accents, natural oak, aged brass, or soft mushroom beige for a considered, layered palette.

LRV of Raspberry Crush
Raspberry Crush has an LRV of 12.87% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 12.87%, 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.
