02Design notes
  • Limit the saturation. Hanami palettes feel atmospheric, not aggressive.
  • Pair with washi-paper textures rather than glossy surfaces.
  • For UI work, use kinari as the surface base and sakura-iro as a soft accent — never as primary text.
03FAQ
What colors are associated with hanami?

Cherry blossom pinks (桜色 / 撫子色), fresh-shoot green (萌黄色), wisteria lavender (藤色), and soft yellow (山吹色).

Is hanami a kimono palette or a UI palette?

Both. Hanami color logic — soft, atmospheric, low-saturation — transfers well to spring branding, packaging, and seasonal UI.
