Designing with Coral

Coral is the happiest color in the palette — orange blended with pink until it glows with warmth. It is associated with reefs, sunset, and summer, and it has a naturally welcoming energy that makes it a favorite for fashion, branding, and interiors that want to feel alive.

Coral's complementary is teal, and the coral-teal pairing is a design classic that appears everywhere from wedding palettes to resort branding. Coral also pairs beautifully with deep blues and navy, with warm woods and cream for a natural feel, and with white for a fresh, clean contrast.
