How to use it

Written by hand for the hue family and lightness of this palette, not assembled from a template.

The lead color sits in the middle of the lightness range, which makes it the most adaptable: both light and dark themes are easy to build on.

Good forBest as an accent rather than a large surface: prices, promotions, error states, anything that must be seen first.
Use with careUse it sparingly in finance and healthcare, where it can read as aggressive rather than trustworthy.
Pairs withSafest with neutral grays and white. Keep blue for confirmation and reserve red for danger and emphasis.
