Muted salmon-peach orange for grounded, soft emphasis
About Savoury Salmon
Savoury Salmon looks like a salmon skin tone that's been lightly warmed in a pan, not a blush, not a dusted clay. Compared to La Vie en Rose and Juicy Peach, it stays more firmly orange and less pink at the edges. Compared to Indian Mesa, it feels a step lighter and a lot less "worked-in," with a cleaner, calmer saturation that doesn't read as heavy terracotta.
I reach for it when I need the one you reach for when the UI needs warmth without sliding into coral-pink. It's strong in e-commerce product cards, ingredient and food brand layouts, and those category tiles where you want "healthy appetite" energy rather than sunburnt color. It also works in dashboards and finance apps where the accent should feel human, not pastel. Pair it with soft creams and toasted sand so the undertone stays savory.
One quirk: next to sharper terracottas, Savoury Salmon can look a bit more refined and airy, so use a thicker orange for hierarchy and keep this for supporting fills.
