Grape Riot
Also known as: Plum Passion, Orchid Lei, La la Lavender, Viva Magenta
Grape Riot brings a gentle and approachable feel to any palette. This medium pink is a natural fit for romantic branding and children's products. A green counterpart from the complementary harmony gives it the most tension. It's dark enough to use for text on white backgrounds (5.85:1, passes WCAG AA).

Where Grape Riot works
- Web & UI: Dark enough for body text and icons on white backgrounds — it passes WCAG AA as-is.
- 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: Premium territory: beauty, creative tools, and boutique brands lean on this range.
- Web & UI: A supporting-cast color for UI: chart fills, tags, empty-state illustrations — not text.
- Branding: A secondary brand color by nature: it supports a stronger primary and shines in illustration.
