Martini

Also known as: Lavender Suede, Embarrassed Shadow, Prestige, Matte Grey

A muted orange with a playful and vibrant character, Martini works beautifully for friendly UI accents and children's products. Martini plays well with cyan tones — the harmonies below show exactly which ones. For accessible text, use it on black or near-black backgrounds (9.14:1, passes WCAG AA) rather than white.

Where Martini works

  • Web & UI: Use it decoratively — dividers, chart series, illustration accents — and let neutrals carry the type.
  • Interiors: Muted enough to paint all four walls; sample it in both daylight and evening light before committing.
  • Fashion: Works as a base layer or outerwear tone that lets brighter pieces do the talking.
  • Branding: Best in a brand's supporting palette — packaging interiors, patterns, campaign accents.
  • 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.
