#c41e3a - Cardinal color
A vivid, rich crimson with a cool magenta undertone, this red feels bold, passionate and slightly vintage. It’s saturated and attention-grabbing—ideal for calls-to-action, branding accents, fashion details, or editorial headlines. It works well against pale or creamy backgrounds (good contrast on white) but can lose legibility on pure black. Pair it with deep navy, charcoal gray, warm neutrals, or metallic gold for elegance; use sparingly to avoid visual overwhelm and to preserve its energetic, confident character.
