In this palette the hues fall in the rose and teal families, spread across 188 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.

Overall the palette is warm: 3 of its 5 chromatic colors lean warm and 1 lean cool. Its average chroma of 0.145 makes the saturation rich.
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: #FAA9AE as the background, #28AEA3 for cards and surfaces, #E21050 as the primary brand color, #32C4C5 as the accent, and #2A1217 for text (a computed darker shade of Raspberry, because no palette color is readable on that background). A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
Give one side of the wheel to the background and structure and the other to calls to action. A small amount of the opposing hue goes a long way.
