Why it works and how to use it
Cherry Punch & Ink is a complementary color palette tagged modern, minimal, gray. Near-complementary hues (about 156° apart) make this a high-contrast, attention-grabbing combination. Saturation is moderate, which keeps it flexible for both interfaces and print. Warm and cool hues are mixed, which adds depth.
Two of the four colors are near-neutral, which leaves room for Punch to lead. Lightness runs from 10% to 88%. Well suited to websites, presentations and branding.
- Background: Almond (#E3E1E0) is the lightest color, so it belongs on large surfaces.
- Text: Ink (#101A23) on #E3E1E0 gives 13.49:1, passing WCAG AAA.
- Primary: Punch (#DF5146) is the most saturated mid-tone; use it for buttons and links with a border or a darker shade for contrast.
- Accent: Silver (#CEC2BD) for highlights, badges and hover states.
