Razzberry reads as warm and personal — works in bedrooms, nurseries, and any space where softness and warmth are the goal. At LRV 10 it reads as a deep, enveloping shade — best on accent walls, dining rooms, and spaces where atmosphere matters more than reflected light. Skip it as a whole-room color in spaces meant to feel neutral or understated — it reads soft and personal, best as an accent.

Razzberry Technical Profile
What color is Dutch Boy Razzberry (102-7DB)? It's a dark warm pink — hex #9A304D, LRV 10. The closest cross-brand equivalent to Razzberry is Sherwin-Williams Cerise — a near-identical match on the wall, with Behr Sweet Cherry and Benjamin Moore Magenta also close. With an LRV of 10, Razzberry creates a dramatic, enveloping mood — best on accent walls, dining rooms, and intimate spaces where atmosphere matters more than reflected light. Pair it with warm whites like Simply White, blonde wood floors, and brass or gold hardware. Deep green or forest accents add contrast that keeps it from feeling too sweet. At mid saturation, this color sits at a flexible mid-point — bold enough to anchor a room without dominating, and pairs cleanly with both crisp and creamy whites. Under 2700K warm bulbs pinks and magentas glow warmly, leaning coral. Under 4000K cool light they read more vibrant — important for nursery and bedroom planning where bulb choice changes the mood. At mid saturation the lighting shift is moderate but real — sample under both warm-bulb evening light and cool-daylight morning light before committing.
