RAL 230 20 25
Deep Crimson
RAL 230 20 25 Deep Crimson sits at hue 230, lightness 20, and chroma 25 in the RAL Design system, producing a very dark saturated true red that evokes the concentrated depth of crimson lake pigment and the last glow of a blacksmith's forge. This intense tone is favoured for luxury theatre interior finishes, ceremonial hall panelling, and fine wine cellar accent walls. Its low lightness and strong chroma create a colour that reads nearly black in shadow yet reveals a fiery crimson heart under direct illumination.
Color Reference
The RAL Design system uses Hue-Lightness-Chroma (HLC) notation. Hue describes the color family (0-360°), Lightness describes brightness (0-100), and Chroma describes saturation intensity (0-100+).
