Cinderella
Also known as: Blossom Tint, Coral Mantle, Strawberry Whip, Deco Shell
Cinderella is what happens when red turns pale and vivid. The effect is passionate and urgent, made for call-to-action buttons and food branding. Match it with cyan accents when the design calls for energy over calm. For accessible text, use it on black or near-black backgrounds (15.69:1, passes WCAG AA) rather than white.

Where Cinderella works
- Web & UI: A natural surface tint: use it for cards, section backgrounds, or hover states instead of flat white.
- Interiors: A softer alternative to builder's white for walls, trim, or ceilings — warmer under evening light.
- 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.
- 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.
