Burnt Orange, straight from the seventies

No decade owns a color quite the way the 1970s own Burnt Orange. It saturated that era's kitchens, upholstery, and station wagons, and every revival of seventies styling brings it back around. The current wave of retro interiors has restored its reputation: next to walnut, brass, and cream it looks confident rather than dated.

The hex explains why it works. #CC5500 is orange with the volume pulled down and the red pushed up, closer to a glaze on terracotta than to a traffic cone. It photographs beautifully behind ceramics and leather goods, and on a slide it signals warmth without the alarm-bell urgency of true orange.
