Berry
Also known as: Aristocratic Velvet, Celestial Pink, Purple Red, Rose Garnet
Part of the pink family, Berry pairs a rich base with a soft and romantic presence — ideal for beauty and fashion and romantic branding. Because it leans warm, balancing it with a cyan keeps a palette from feeling one-note. Accessibility-wise, it clears AA for text on white at 8.32:1.
