Feverish
Also known as: Slice of Watermelon, Kiss and Tell, Cherry Static, Swiss Chard
With its warm undertone, Feverish (#DD6677) comes across as bold and energetic. Designers reach for it in call-to-action buttons and food branding. Because it leans warm, balancing it with a cyan keeps a palette from feeling one-note. Accessibility-wise, it needs a dark backdrop — 6.24:1 on black clears AA.

Where Feverish 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.
