Choosing the right palette shapes user experience and engagement. #FeelTheHue

Red - Energy & Action

[{"selector":"#anim-57436287-f29b-4fa8-ad91-f029fa08d259","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-93dab32c-bf5e-430b-b244-e98c3220c0e0","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -353.92954%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-cc02117a-07b9-4f82-befb-11369140dccd","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-033b6969-557d-47e0-b393-a814a91e88c6","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 397.24978%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Red grabs attention, drives urgency (e.g., sale buttons), but overuse feels aggressive. Pair with neutrals for balance. #RedImpact

Blue - Trust & Calm
