Sandstorm feels granular even on a flat screen.

The yellow has a dusty edge, like ochre powder catching hard midday light.

Try it on a trail marker, an arid-land map, or the date band on a harvest calendar. Basalt gray steadies the brightness. Dry sage keeps the palette outdoors, and storm blue adds a cooler boundary.

Numbers first: red 236, green 213, and blue 64 produce #ECD540. The narrow red-green gap supplies warmth without pushing the color fully into orange.
