About this palette
Bold Raspberry Gallery is palette number 6,481 of Tintly's fifteen million generated palettes. It is a vivid palette built on a tetradic scheme, and it is anchored by Raspberry (#BB174F), the most saturated of its five colors.
The palette reads as lively, bold and full of contrast. Its colors run from Peach (#FEBA82) at the light end to Raspberry (#BB174F) at the dark end, covering 51% to 84% perceptual lightness, so it has real range rather than five similar tones.
The five colors
1. ≈ Raspberry #BB174F: suggested role text. It is a rose color with 51% lightness and a chroma of 0.194, which makes it clearly saturated.
2. ≈ Olive #887F11: suggested role accent. It is a yellow color with 59% lightness and a chroma of 0.119.
3. ≈ Turquoise #18B0AD: suggested role surface. It is a teal color with 69% lightness and a chroma of 0.114.

5. ≈ Peach #FEBA82: suggested role background. It is a orange color with 84% lightness and a chroma of 0.107.
Harmony and structure
Four hues are spaced around the wheel in two complementary pairs. It is the richest scheme, and the hardest to balance.
In this palette the hues fall in the rose, yellow, teal, violet and orange families, spread across 273 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.
Temperature and mood
Overall the palette is temperature-balanced: 2 of its 5 chromatic colors lean warm and 2 lean cool. Its average chroma of 0.134 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 lively, bold and full of contrast.
Accessibility and contrast
The strongest pairing is Raspberry (#BB174F) with Peach (#FEBA82) at a contrast ratio of 3.75:1, 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 (#FEBA82), so this page suggests #2A1217 for text, a darkened Raspberry that reaches 10.48:1. 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: #FEBA82 as the background, #18B0AD for cards and surfaces, #9C9DFB as the primary brand color, #887F11 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.
Let one hue take most of the space and use the others sparingly. Control the mood with lightness and saturation rather than hue.
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.
