Flame
#e25822
Lighter burnt orange with sharp, flame-red heat
About Flame
Flame looks like a fresh lick of heat captured mid-burst. It's brighter and cleaner than the deeper, more forceful oranges, with less of that "pulled darker" bite you feel in Furious Tiger. Where Ferocious Fox goes a bit more aggressive and ember-tight, Flame stays focused and crisp, not smoky or clay-leaning.
I use Flame as the one you reach for when you want a primary accent that reads unmistakably orange, but with a lighter, more lift-in-the-interface attitude. It's great for dashboards and finance apps where confirm, buy, and upgrade states need urgency without veering into warning-red. I've also leaned on it for retail checkout highlights, live sports score callouts, and commerce notification badges on light-to-mid surfaces, because it stays readable and energetic rather than heavy.
Quirk: on very warm creams it can start to look a little too "hot-caramel." I usually counter that with cooler grays or a cleaner, brighter orange-gray background so the tone stays sharp.
