Voodoo
Also known as: Red Onion, Vincotto, Barossa, Disappearing Purple
As a rich take on pink, Voodoo carries playful and warm energy that suits children's products and soft backgrounds. Set it against a green accent when you want the combination to pop. It's dark enough to use for text on white backgrounds (11.82:1, passes WCAG AA).

Where Voodoo 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: A wardrobe neutral: it anchors outfits and pairs with nearly any accent color.
- Branding: Premium territory: beauty, creative tools, and boutique brands lean on this range.
- Web & UI: A supporting-cast color for UI: chart fills, tags, empty-state illustrations — not text.
- Fashion: Wears best as the statement piece — a top, scarf, or shoes — against neutral basics.
