Channel
Also known as: My Fair Lady, Silver Strawberry, English Rose, Cor-de-Pele
Channel sits on the warm side of the spectrum: a lively red that feels bold and energetic. Try it in call-to-action buttons and food branding. Its complement lands in cyan territory, which makes for striking two-color pairings. Accessibility-wise, it needs a dark backdrop — 13.33:1 on black clears AA.

Where Channel works
- Web & UI: A supporting-cast color for UI: chart fills, tags, empty-state illustrations — not text.
- Interiors: Strong for a whole room, excellent in doses: an accent wall, cabinetry, or a statement chair.
- Fashion: Wears best as the statement piece — a top, scarf, or shoes — against neutral basics.
- Branding: High-energy brand material: strong for food, fitness, and youth-facing marks — use sparingly in UI.
- Branding: A secondary brand color by nature: it supports a stronger primary and shines in illustration.
