About Gold

Gold is a warm, rich yellow that symbolizes luxury, success, and prestige. It's a staple in premium branding, award designs, and celebratory themes. In web design, gold works well as an accent color against dark backgrounds like navy or black. Use it sparingly for maximum impact — it shines brightest when paired with neutral tones.
