Closer to a ripe pumpkin than a soft peach, #ea6e18 is a bold, saturated orange with real heat. Its intensity makes it a natural accent for calls to action, sports branding, and autumn themes, and it stays lively next to deep teal or charcoal. Black text passes contrast checks on it, so it can even carry small body copy.
