Why it works and how to use it
Grape & Lime is a complementary color palette tagged vibrant, cold, purple. Near-complementary hues (about 167° apart) make this a high-contrast, attention-grabbing combination. Saturation is moderate, which keeps it flexible for both interfaces and print. The overall temperature is cool.
It works because the lightness range is wide (29% to 97%), which gives clear hierarchy between background, content and accents. Try it for websites, presentations and branding.
- Background: Smoke (#F7F7F7) is the lightest color, so it belongs on large surfaces.
- Text: Indigo (#4A1D75) on #F7F7F7 gives 11.37:1, passing WCAG AAA.
- Primary: Pear (#C6F35A) is the most saturated mid-tone; use it for buttons and links with a border or a darker shade for contrast.
- Accent: Grape (#7B3FA0) for highlights, badges and hover states.
