Warmth and creativity carry the palette from Dark Wood outward, with the remaining swatches arranged around that rather than competing with it. Dark Wood to Linen spans 79 points of lightness, so the palette can carry its own hierarchy without reaching for a second one. Saturation averages 72 percent with Warm Gold at the top, which is loud enough that the palette will fight anything else on the page.
Dark Wood a deep rust or umber, orange's heat banked into something earthy and lived-in.
Terracotta a citrus-bright orange: enthusiasm, playfulness, an unmistakable call to attention.
Antique Bronze an electric, high-visibility yellow: caution and euphoria share the same wavelength here.
Warm Gold an electric, high-visibility yellow: caution and euphoria share the same wavelength here.
Linen a peach or apricot tint, all the friendliness of orange with none of the volume.
