In this palette the hues fall in the orange and red families, spread across 14 degrees of the OKLCH hue circle. Vivid palettes keep chroma between 0.15 and 0.26, and lightness between 52% and 82%, which is why the set feels consistent.

That combination suits app and product marketing, event posters and social media graphics, and it is a good fit when you want a design to feel energetic, confident and attention-seeking.

How to use it
Suggested roles: #FDB297 as the background, #CB5813 for cards and surfaces, #F7652B as the primary brand color, #F8872B as the accent, and #291409 for text (a computed darker shade of Rust, because no palette color is readable on that background). A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
Use the lightest color for large areas, the mid tones for structure, and the darkest for text. Add contrast through lightness, since hue will not do it for you.
