secondary

#FF5C4D (Tomato Red) provides a strong, slightly softer alternative for secondary headings or important data visualization.

accent

Use #FF9F80 (Light Coral) to add a gentle, warm highlight or for interactive elements that need a subtle glow.

text

For readability on these vibrant colors, white or a very light gray is essential. For text on white backgrounds, a dark charcoal or black.

Accessibility notes

Due to the high saturation and similar luminosities, text contrast within this palette will be challenging. Prioritize white text on darker reds.
#FF9F80 may not have sufficient contrast against other palette colors for text; reserve it for large decorative elements or backgrounds with dark text.
Ensure interactive elements use distinct hues from non-interactive elements to avoid confusion.
Always test color pairings with accessibility checkers, especially for smaller text sizes.
