Hazy Moon
Also known as: Honey Nectar , Sun Deck , Roadster Yellow , North Star
Hazy Moon is a soft, lively orange that reads as warm and inviting. It earns its place in children's products and fitness brands. Match it with blue accents when the design calls for energy over calm. Against dark backgrounds it stays legible (15.49:1), but avoid it as text on white.
