Why it works and how to use it
The palette holds together thanks to its monochromatic hue relationship and a strong light-to-dark ladder (95% down to 50% lightness). A natural fit for websites, presentations and branding.
- Background: Linen (#F8F2EA) is the lightest color, so it belongs on large surfaces.
- Text: Brass (#A8A755) on #F8F2EA gives 2.27:1, so pair it with a darker neutral for body copy.
- Primary: Celadon (#C6D3A1) is the most saturated mid-tone; use it for buttons and links with a border or a darker shade for contrast.
- Accent: Sage (#9BB09B) for highlights, badges and hover states.
