Accessibility and contrast
The strongest pairing is Mulberry (#B6164E) with Orange (#FCB04E) at a contrast ratio of 3.56:1, which is WCAG AA large. Across all 10 possible pairs, 0 reach the 4.5:1 AA level for normal text and 1 more reach 3:1 for large text.
No other palette color reaches 4.5:1 on the background (#FCB04E), so this page suggests #2A1217 for text, a darkened Mulberry that reaches 9.57:1. Check any pair you use in the contrast checker.
All five colors stay distinguishable under protanopia, deuteranopia and tritanopia simulations, which is a good sign, although it is no substitute for testing with real users.
How to use it
Suggested roles: #FCB04E as the background, #FB9346 for cards and surfaces, #F25E1B as the primary brand color, #D84348 as the accent, and #2A1217 for text (a computed darker shade of Mulberry, because no palette color is readable on that background). A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
Let one hue lead and let the others support it. Keep one color noticeably lighter or darker than the rest so the layout has a clear focal point.
Typical uses for a vivid palette include app and product marketing, event posters, social media graphics and entertainment brands. Open it in the generator to lock the colors you love and reroll the rest, or in the visualizer to see it on real layouts.
