Eagle

Also known as: Castellina, Splinter, Horsing Around, Gallstone Yellow

As a medium take on brown, Eagle carries earthy and grounded energy that suits autumn design and coffee and food branding. Its complement lands in blue territory, which makes for striking two-color pairings. For accessible text, use it on black or near-black backgrounds (4.73:1, passes WCAG AA) rather than white.

Where Eagle works

  • Web & UI: Best as a button fill, badge, or accent — pair it with white text only at large sizes, and check contrast.
  • Interiors: Strong for a whole room, excellent in doses: an accent wall, cabinetry, or a statement chair.
  • Fashion: A wardrobe neutral: it anchors outfits and pairs with nearly any accent color.
  • Branding: Craft and heritage material — coffee, leather goods, and premium packaging live here.
  • Web & UI: A supporting-cast color for UI: chart fills, tags, empty-state illustrations — not text.
  • Fashion: Wears best as the statement piece — a top, scarf, or shoes — against neutral basics.
