All you need to know about Burnt Orange.

Burnt Orange is a medium to deep orange color that is suggestive of fire and flames. It was formally named in 1915, yet its actual shade is as yet challenged until the present time. For instance, the Auburn University contends that Burnt Orange is derived from blue undertones, while the University of Texas disagrees. However, the Pantone follows the Burnt Orange with blue undertones.

Burnt Orange has both positive and negative implications. In terms of the negatives, this color is used to depict immaturity, pride, and obstinacy. On the other hand, Burnt Orange is positively related to pre-winter times, bringing thoughts of warmth, comfort, and togetherness. It combines well with deep blues and grays, and also mint blue and peach to make a striking, vivid color palette.
