Curated WarmBold

Relay is a warm and bold 3-colour linear gradient that runs from purple (#3A1C71) through light red (#D76D77) to light orange (#FFAF7B) at 135°. It suits hero sections and call-to-action buttons and banners and attention-grabbing headers. Black text reads best on it, at a contrast ratio of 5.1:1 against the gradient’s average colour (AA).
