Mimosa

Mimosa (#F2B949) is a warm golden-yellow that radiates sunshine and optimism. Named after the vibrant mimosa flower and the beloved brunch cocktail, this cheerful hue was Pantone's 2009 Color of the Year, chosen to inspire hope during challenging times.

This versatile color excels in UI design for highlighting success states and positive feedback, making it perfect for confirmation messages and call-to-action buttons. Mimosa pairs beautifully with complementary purple for bold contrast, while light blue creates a fresh, sky-inspired palette. For warmer combinations, consider coral or amber.

In psychology, mimosa stimulates creativity and innovation while evoking feelings of happiness and enlightenment. It's particularly effective for seasonal designs, educational platforms, and brands wanting to convey energy and positivity. The color works especially well in travel, food & beverage, and lifestyle applications where a sunny, welcoming atmosphere is desired.

Whether used as an accent or primary color, mimosa brings instant warmth and vitality to any design project.
