About coral

A warm pink-orange taken from the marine invertebrate. It sits between salmon and orange and is a favourite for friendly call-to-action buttons.

The values above are computed from the sRGB hex #FF7F50. The OKLCH form (oklch(73.5% 0.168 40.25)) is worth noting: unlike HSL, its lightness matches how bright the colour actually looks, which makes building consistent shade scales far easier.
