Color Psychology

Rust sets the weight of the palette in warmth and creativity, and Raw Wood is the swatch that breaks rank: a single brown that stops the set reading as one note. Found Yellow 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. Raw Wood and Paper sit 66 points of lightness apart, enough to separate a foreground from a background without forcing it.

Raw Wood#4A3728

Raw Wood a dusty taupe-brown, quiet and unassuming.

Rust#C84B1A

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

Botanical#2A4A2A

Botanical a sage or eucalyptus green, growth read through a calmer, more contemplative filter.

Found Yellow#F5C518

Found Yellow an electric, high-visibility yellow: caution and euphoria share the same wavelength here.

Paper#F5E6D0

Paper a peach or apricot tint, all the friendliness of orange with none of the volume.
