Pastrami
Also known as: Zahri Pink , Froly , Redstone , Natural Candy Pink
Part of the pink family, Pastrami pairs a soft base with a gentle and approachable presence. It belongs in romantic branding and children's products. A cyan counterpart from the complementary harmony gives it the most tension. For accessible text, use it on black or near-black backgrounds (7.05:1, passes WCAG AA) rather than white.
