Roland-Garros
Also known as: Taisha Brown , Titian Red , Fallen Canopy , Grieving Daylily
On screen, Roland-Garros registers as warm and inviting: a medium orange at home in children's products and fitness brands. Because it leans warm, balancing it with a cyan keeps a palette from feeling one-note. It's dark enough to use for text on white backgrounds (4.73:1, passes WCAG AA).

RAL values are widely published approximations of the physical standard. For Pantone-adjacent workflows, match by eye against a physical fan deck. Pantone's values are proprietary and device-dependent, so we don't print lookups.
Where Roland-Garros works
- Web & UI: Dark enough for body text and icons on white backgrounds. It passes WCAG AA as-is.
- 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: High-energy brand material: strong for food, fitness, and youth-facing marks. Use sparingly in UI.
- Web & UI: Best as a button fill, badge, or accent. Pair it with white text only at large sizes, and check contrast.
- Branding: A secondary brand color by nature: it supports a stronger primary and shines in illustration.
