Winter citrus colour palette: bright orange and lemon hex codes for your planner

Orange, lemon, blood orange and a green leaf. Winter is when citrus is at its best, and this is the brightest palette we’ve made for January.

Where each colour goes
| Colour | Hex | Use it for |
|---|---|---|
| Work (orange) | #E8891C | Work blocks, in a full orange |
| Health (lemon) | #F2C230 | Walks and workouts, in lemon yellow |
| Personal (blood orange) | #C8375B | Dinners and people, in blood orange |

Bright, on purpose
January is dark, and a bright calendar is a small lift. Orange, yellow and pink-red are neighbours on the colour wheel, so three strong colours still sit together. The leaf green is the only cool one, which makes your goals easy to find.
