Takeaways
- OTTO's two sites differ: the shop is functional (
#212121text on light grey, blue links, red only for brand and sale), the corporate site is expressive (75 px KO Black red headlines, colour-block KPI tiles). - ottogroup.com is almost monochrome red on white with Optimist Light, outline pills and pastel cards; it mirrors the annual report one-to-one.
- Red values in the wild: OTTO
#EB001F(Brand Hub, tokens, corporate site),#F00020(shop accents, older OTTO PDFs, all Otto Group media), Otto Group logo SVG#EE0020.
