Apricot to Electric Lime

A tropical radial that opens with a warm apricot glow and erupts into electric lime at the edges — like cracking open a passion fruit and finding neon. The 315° angle directs the warmth to the upper-left, with lime taking over the lower-right. This is the gradient for moments that need to feel like summer at peak energy: festivals, smoothie brands, youth campaigns.

About this gradient

A tropical radial that opens with a warm apricot glow and erupts into electric lime at the edges — like cracking open a passion fruit and finding neon. The 315° angle directs the warmth to the upper-left, with lime taking over the lower-right. This is the gradient for moments that need to feel like summer at peak energy: festivals, smoothie brands, youth campaigns.

Colour story

#EEAB67 is a warm apricot (HSL 28°, 80% S, 67% L) — sun-ripened orange leaning slightly yellow. #4AEB4C is a poison-bright lime (HSL 119°, 80% S, 61% L), the kind of green that exists more in marker pens than in nature. The matched 80% saturation is what gives the gradient its 'turn it up' confidence, while the 90° hue gap creates a vivid mid-tone that reads as chartreuse.

#4AEB4C

Where to use it

  • →Festival and event posters — concert series, food fairs, summer campaigns where the colour IS the energy
  • →Smoothie, juice, and tropical-flavour beverage packaging where the gradient maps to actual ingredients
  • →Gen-Z brand campaigns (skate, streetwear, esports) where 'too much' is the point
  • →Loading screens or splash transitions in mobile apps when you want the entry to feel like a reveal

Design tips

  • ·Body copy must be black or very deep navy. Anything mid-tone (grey, brown, soft purple) gets eaten by the saturation
  • ·Use this gradient on max 1-2 surfaces per page — it dominates. Pair with a calm neutral (off-white, warm grey) for the rest
  • ·For animation: this gradient is ideal for shimmer/sweep effects because its saturation supports motion. Avoid static use on long-scroll content
