Flirt

Also known as: Red Plum, Rich Red Violet, Beaujolais, Palace Red

Flirt brings a confident and commanding feel to any palette. This rich red is a natural fit for food branding and sale banners. Match it with cyan accents when the design calls for energy over calm. It's dark enough to use for text on white backgrounds (9.03:1, passes WCAG AA).

Where Flirt works

  • Web & UI: Use it directly for text on light surfaces; it clears AA contrast without adjustment.
  • 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: Best in a brand's supporting palette — packaging interiors, patterns, campaign accents.
  • Web & UI: Use it decoratively — dividers, chart series, illustration accents — and let neutrals carry the type.
