Apricot Orange
#f68c50
Ripe apricot flesh is a fair description: a warm, fairly light orange with a pink undertone (a* near 38) that keeps it softer than a pure tangerine. Set against Deep Indigo, it glows like a streetlamp at dusk; with Cotinga Purple it turns lush and slightly tropical; Lemon Yellow makes the pair loud and summery. Its 2.4:1 ratio on white means it should not be used for text there, while black type on it holds a comfortable 8.8:1. It looks good on terracotta-style planters, swimwear prints, and warm feature walls in sunny rooms.
