#D93529 Hex Color
Bold red at full burn
Loud, lush, and hard to ignore. The hex code #d93529 is a saturated red with a slight orange lean, which gives it heat without tipping into alarm. Save it for the 10% accent role: buttons, sale badges, sports branding. As a full background it overwhelms fast. White text clears AA on it at about 4.7:1 contrast, so labels stay readable. Pair it with deep teal or charcoal.
