Dusty salmon, not vivid coral. #edb29e is a pastel orange with a grayed, peachy softness that feels warm without shouting. Its low saturation makes it a natural supporting tone or UI background, and black text reads clearly on it at about 11.5:1 contrast. Pair it with deep teal for a combination that plays up its mellow side. Large flat fields can look washed out next to white, so keep it away from fine detail.
