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 64% lightness). A natural fit for websites, presentations and branding.
- Background: Celadon (#CBEEB1) is the lightest color, so it belongs on large surfaces.
- Text: Eucalyptus (#85CAA2) on #CBEEB1 gives 1.5:1, so pair it with a darker neutral for body copy.
