Color Psychology

Cord Dark sets the weight of the palette in warmth and creativity, and Cream is the swatch that breaks rank: a single yellow that stops the set reading as one note. Cord Dark to Cream spans 76 points of lightness, so the palette can carry its own hierarchy without reaching for a second one. Rust is the loudest thing in the set and every swatch beside it is warm too, which gives the palette no way to cool a page down and no colour to rest an eye on.

Cord Dark#1A1008

Cord Dark a deep rust or umber, orange's heat banked into something earthy and lived-in.

Rust#7A4818

Rust a citrus-bright orange: enthusiasm, playfulness, an unmistakable call to attention.

Mustard Gold#C08838

Mustard Gold signals warmth, approachability, and creative energy, friendlier than red, louder than yellow.

Natural Cotton#D0B880

Natural Cotton signals warmth, approachability, and creative energy, friendlier than red, louder than yellow.

Cream#E8DCC0

Cream a pale butter yellow, gentle brightness, comfort more than alarm.
