Punch & Baby Blue Hour is a vivid light, complementary color palette tagged modern, red, blue. Near-complementary hues (about 144° 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.

Why it works and how to use it
The palette holds together thanks to its complementary hue relationship and a soft light-to-dark ladder (99% down to 60% lightness). A natural fit for websites, presentations and branding.
- Background: White (#FDFDFD) is the lightest color, so it belongs on large surfaces.
- Text: Punch (#EA4A59) on #FDFDFD gives 3.67:1, enough for large headings only.
- Primary: Baby Blue (#8EC5FC) is the most saturated mid-tone; use it for buttons and links with a border or a darker shade for contrast.
- Accent: Periwinkle (#E0C3FC) for highlights, badges and hover states.
No pair inside the palette reaches 4.5:1, so add black or white for body text.
