Bold Ruby & Cyan is a vivid dark, complementary color palette tagged dark, neon, black. Space and Ruby sit nearly opposite on the color wheel, so the pairing has real energy; keep one as the accent. These are bold, punchy colors that need generous white space around them. Warm and cool hues are mixed, which adds depth.

Why it works and how to use it
It works because the lightness range is wide (3% to 50%), which gives clear hierarchy between background, content and accents. Try it for dark-mode interfaces and gaming.

- Text: Obsidian (#01020E) on #00CBE2 gives 10.47:1, passing WCAG AAA.
- Primary: Ruby (#E6196A) is the most saturated mid-tone; use it for buttons and links with a border or a darker shade for contrast.
- Accent: Space (#1A2B5A) for highlights, badges and hover states.
