Pale red shades make excellent backgrounds, hover states, and subtle accents. They keep designs airy without losing the hue's personality.
The middle of the red spectrum is where most UI elements live — buttons, icons, links, and borders. These shades are vivid enough to pop without overwhelming.
Deep red shades work for text on light backgrounds, dark mode surfaces, and dramatic hero sections. They're rich and authoritative.
Pick one red shade as your primary, one light variant for backgrounds, and one dark variant for depth. Add a neutral gray for balance.
