Hazelwood
Also known as: Cashmere Sweater , Satin Cream White , Honied White , Custard Cream
Hazelwood brings a playful and vibrant feel to a palette. This pale orange suits autumn palettes and friendly UI accents. Match it with white accents when the design calls for energy over calm. For accessible text, use it on black or near-black backgrounds (19.03:1, passes WCAG AA) rather than white.

Where Hazelwood works
- Web & UI: Too light for text, ideal as a background wash that keeps a page from feeling sterile.
- Interiors: Wall-to-wall safe: it behaves like a white with personality, especially in north-facing rooms.
- 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 for dividers, chart series, and illustration accents, and let neutrals carry the type.
- Interiors: Use it where you want the eye to land: a front door, built-ins, or one bold wall.
