Why it works and how to use it
Scarlet Ruby & Coral is a vivid analogous color palette tagged retro, vibrant, warm. Analogous neighbors on the wheel (Ruby, Coral, Melon) 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 4 chromatic colors, Coral takes the lead while the rest support. Lightness runs from 48% to 84%. Well suited to websites, presentations and branding.
- Background: Wheat (#F4DEB7) is the lightest color, so it belongs on large surfaces.
- Text: Ruby (#D3235A) on #F4DEB7 gives 3.84:1, enough for large headings only.
- Primary: Coral (#FF744A) is the most saturated mid-tone; use it for buttons and links with a border or a darker shade for contrast.
- Accent: Melon (#FFBA7A) for highlights, badges and hover states.
No pair inside the palette reaches 4.5:1, so add black or white for body text.
