Pomegranate

Pomegranate (#9A2536) is a true red with a vibrant character. It holds its own as a focal accent, carrying visual weight without tipping into neon territory. Its HSL profile (351°, 61%, 37%) places it in the balanced band at a mid lightness. It works across type, buttons, and borders, saturated enough to feel deliberate but balanced enough to not fight the rest of the palette. For a confident two-color system, pair it with its complementary teal. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel. The deep red of Punica granatum juice — one of the first cultivated fruits, grown in Mesopotamia by 3000 BCE. The 613 seeds of a standard fruit correspond, in Jewish tradition, to the mitzvot of the Torah.
