Welcome to Orange
Orange is a color that can be used safely just about anywhere, but it’s generally light and if only paired with a light background, can make a site look washed out. Use dark oranges or a dark partner-color. “Call To Action” buttons perform about 30% better when they are Orange or Green for some reason. Lots of studies back that up… none really do a good job explaining why.
Below you can see all the oranges. Copy and paste some of your favorites to use in digital color projects or hand off to your favorite Nerdy Web Guy to use in your next project.
Keep in mind it’s worth making a few selections both light and dark.
