Radical Raspberry (1112097): Where and How to Use It

A mellow red from Dulux, Radical Raspberry (1112097) is a flexible mid-tone that works on full walls or a single feature. With its warm undertone, it looks most natural alongside warm whites and natural timber.

Best Spaces for Radical Raspberry

• Living rooms: a mid-tone adds warmth and personality without taking over.
• Dining rooms and feature walls: a rich red energises a room and makes a statement.
• Studies and workspaces: a steady, mid-depth wall is easy on the eye for long stints.
• Bedrooms: enough colour to feel cosy, still calm enough to relax in.

What Goes With Radical Raspberry

Planning colours across the home? Treat Radical Raspberry as a flexible base or a feature and add:

• Deep green or navy - for a confident contrast.
• Soft grey - for a calm, modern pairing.
• Warm white and cream - to give the eye somewhere to rest.

Threading one pairing from space to space keeps everything looking deliberate.

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Radical Raspberry richens under warm light and sun, and settles to an even tone in cooler, north light.

Best finish: A matt finish looks smooth and modern in living rooms and bedrooms; use a washable soft-sheen in kitchens, bathrooms and hallways.

Worth Knowing

Check a tester patch morning and evening, as red shifts with the light in a room. A tinted base plus two coats gives a clean, consistent wall.
