Somewhere between a ripe raspberry and a fire truck, this red hits hard and never settles into the background. #f5254b is fully saturated with a pink lean, so it reads bright rather than heavy. Black text clears WCAG AA on it at about 5.2:1, which makes it a solid pick for buttons, badges, and calls to action. As a full background it overwhelms fast; treat it as the 10 percent accent and let deep navy or charcoal do the grounding.
