Tatami
Also known as: Fossil White, Unforgettable, Almond Silk, Muslin Tint
As a soft take on orange, Tatami carries playful and vibrant energy that suits friendly UI accents and children's products. A blue counterpart from the complementary harmony gives it the most tension. Against dark backgrounds it stays legible (13.36:1), but avoid it as text on white.

Where Tatami works
- Web & UI: Use it decoratively — dividers, chart series, illustration accents — and let neutrals carry the type.
- 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: Best in a brand's supporting palette — packaging interiors, patterns, campaign accents.
