Sherwin Williams

Blackberry

SW 7577

Blackberry (hex #533640) is a deep, muted red leaning toward a desaturated wine or plum tone, with distinctly cool undertones. Its LRV of 5 means it absorbs most light, producing a dark, concentrated presence on walls. The hue sits on the red spectrum but pulls away from traditional burgundy toward a cooler, more restrained direction, suiting modern interiors that favor understated depth.

It coordinates well with soft gray-greens and pale mauves like Acacia Haze or Ash Violet, and benefits from contrast with warm off-whites such as Alabaster or dusty pinks like Rose to prevent the palette from reading too heavy.
