Tortilla
Also known as: Brilliant Gold , Creamy Ivory , Honey and Cream , Bleached Bone
Tortilla holds a pale position in the orange range and reads as warm and inviting. You'll see it used for friendly UI accents and children's products. Because it leans warm, balancing it with a blue keeps a palette from feeling one-note. Accessibility-wise, it needs a dark backdrop: 15.36:1 on black clears AA.

Where Tortilla works
- Web & UI: Use it decoratively for dividers, chart series, and illustration accents, and let neutrals carry the type.
- Interiors: Use it where you want the eye to land: a 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.
- Branding: Best in a brand's supporting palette: packaging interiors, patterns, campaign accents.
