Angry Pasta
Also known as: Capricorn Golden Key, Casandora Yellow, Canary Diamond, Decisive Yellow
As a soft take on orange, Angry Pasta carries friendly and enthusiastic energy that suits children's products and fitness brands. Because it leans warm, balancing it with a blue keeps a palette from feeling one-note. Against dark backgrounds it stays legible (14.02:1), but avoid it as text on white.

Where Angry Pasta works
- Web & UI: Reads as an interactive accent: fills, hovers, focus rings. Keep body text in a darker neutral.
- Interiors: Use it where you want the eye to land — front door, built-ins, or one bold wall.
- Fashion: One garment in this color carries an outfit; two starts to compete.
- Branding: Commands attention in logos and packaging; balance it with generous neutral space.
- Web & UI: Use it decoratively — dividers, chart series, illustration accents — and let neutrals carry the type.
- Branding: Best in a brand's supporting palette — packaging interiors, patterns, campaign accents.
