Pelati
Also known as: Flamboyant, Red Orange, Opera Red, In the Red
Pelati is what happens when red turns soft and vivid. The effect is confident and commanding, made for sale banners and sportswear. Its complement lands in cyan territory, which makes for striking two-color pairings. Against dark backgrounds it stays legible (5.77:1), but avoid it as text on white.

Where Pelati works
- Web & UI: Reads as an interactive accent: fills, hovers, focus rings. Keep body text in a darker neutral.
- 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.
- Branding: Commands attention in logos and packaging; balance it with generous neutral space.
- Web & UI: Use it decoratively — dividers, chart series, illustration accents — and let neutrals carry the type.
- Branding: Best in a brand's supporting palette — packaging interiors, patterns, campaign accents.
