Crisp Turquoise & Caramel is a vivid dark, complementary color palette tagged dark, black, teal. Near-complementary hues (about 172° apart) make this a high-contrast, attention-grabbing combination. Saturation runs high, so use the brightest color sparingly and let the others carry the surface area. Warm and cool hues are mixed, which adds depth.
