Why it works and how to use it
Classic Cranberry & Honey is a vivid analogous color palette tagged warm, vibrant, red. Analogous neighbors on the wheel (Cranberry, Honey, Mustard) give it a natural, low-tension flow. Saturation runs high, so use the brightest color sparingly and let the others carry the surface area. The overall temperature is warm.
With 3 chromatic colors, Honey takes the lead while the rest support. Lightness runs from 34% to 99%. Well suited to websites, presentations and branding.
- Background: White (#FDFDFD) is the lightest color, so it belongs on large surfaces.
- Text: Cranberry (#AC001A) on #FDFDFD gives 7.46:1, passing WCAG AAA.
- Primary: Honey (#E99B00) is the most saturated mid-tone; use it for buttons and links with a border or a darker shade for contrast.
- Accent: Mustard (#D1BF59) for highlights, badges and hover states.
1 of 6 color pairs pass WCAG AA (4.5:1); the strongest is Cranberry on White at 7.46:1.
