What color is Behr Rave Raisin?
Behr Rave Raisin HDC-MD-13 is a deep, muted brown with a subtle reddish cast and a gently smoky appearance. Its low saturation keeps the color from reading overly warm, giving it a grounded, near-charcoal depth in dim rooms. In brighter natural light, the softened brown undertone becomes easier to see. Use Rave Raisin on a study wall, dining room cabinetry, or interior doors when you want a dark finish with more warmth than black. It pairs well with creamy off-whites, dusty clay tones, aged brass, walnut, and textured linen.

What are Behr Rave Raisin undertones?
Rave Raisin is a deep, very muted earthy, slightly muddy brown. The HEX sample has a subtle orange bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear orange. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.

LRV of Rave Raisin
Rave Raisin has an LRV of 7.12% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 7.12%, 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.
