If the color raspberry were a person, I would describe her as confident, bold, fashionable and sweet. Raspberry brings a bold vibe to any room. When added in small doses, the space becomes a bit more sassy. And when used as the main color, raspberry becomes the life of the party (room)!
Raspberry is vibrant and likes to take center stage. If you use raspberry on the walls, keep the rest of décor light and simple — use complementary whites and light shades of cool colors. The bit of celadon green here is reminiscent of delicious watermelon.

| Raspberry is a wonderfully rich color for a French country-style room. It keeps the space young and vibrant. Toile, often used in French country design, depicts a delicate scene, but feels fresh when used in a hot hue like raspberry. |

How fun this raspberry butterfly wallpaper would be as a focal wall behind a bed, with creamy white paint on the other walls. Repeat the buttery yellow tones on bedding because this is another terrific color that works well with raspberry.

| Raspberry all grown up. Deeper shades of raspberry work well with traditional spaces, creating a sophisticated, soothing room. Start with a neutral palette, warm woods, oil bronze tones, then add in this deep burst of color through cotton fabrics. |
This is an interesting, strong and gleeful space. Raspberry is a playful color. Adding scrumptious raspberry to walls of a traditional space will kick up the look of classic furniture. It also goes wonderfully with golden yellow. They are like two old friends coming together to create a warm and inviting space.
Try this Benjamin Moore paint color for a deeper shade of raspberry.
