Prosciutto
Also known as: Terra Cotta Blush, Smoky Salmon, Fall Leaf, Angel Breath
Prosciutto is a soft, lively orange that reads as playful and vibrant. It shines in autumn palettes and friendly UI accents. Set it against a cyan accent when you want the combination to pop. For accessible text, use it on black or near-black backgrounds (11.23:1, passes WCAG AA) rather than white.

Where Prosciutto works
- Web & UI: A supporting-cast color for UI: chart fills, tags, empty-state illustrations — not text.
- Interiors: Strong for a whole room, excellent in doses: an accent wall, cabinetry, or a statement chair.
- Fashion: Wears best as the statement piece — a top, scarf, or shoes — against neutral basics.
- Branding: A secondary brand color by nature: it supports a stronger primary and shines in illustration.
