Why it works and how to use it

The palette holds together thanks to its split hue relationship and a soft light-to-dark ladder (81% down to 38% lightness). A natural fit for websites, presentations and branding.

  • Background: Flamingo (#FF9FB5) is the lightest color, so it belongs on large surfaces.
  • Text: Plum (#8D366E) on #FF9FB5 gives 3.77:1, enough for large headings only.
  • Primary: Amethyst (#9D63E8) is the most saturated mid-tone; use it for buttons and links with a border or a darker shade for contrast.
  • Accent: Wisteria (#CD8BD6) for highlights, badges and hover states.

No pair inside the palette reaches 4.5:1, so add black or white for body text.
