About this palette

Adobe, founded by John Warnock and Chuck Geschke in 1982, uses #FA0F00 red as its identity color. The red is intentionally aggressive — Adobe Creative Cloud's product mark is red, every Save dialog cue is red — but the supporting palette across each product family is deeply considered, with photoshop blue, illustrator orange, and indesign pink all carving out distinct sub-identities.
