Why it works and how to use it

Purple Tonal is a vivid monochromatic color palette tagged gradient, dark, cold. A monochromatic set: the same hue family from Ink down to Lavender. Saturation runs high, so use the brightest color sparingly and let the others carry the surface area. The overall temperature is cool.

The palette holds together thanks to its monochromatic hue relationship and a strong light-to-dark ladder (92% down to 14% lightness). A natural fit for websites, presentations and branding.

Background: Lavender (#EBDCFB) is the lightest color, so it belongs on large surfaces.
Text: Ink (#2B0A3D) on #EBDCFB gives 13.32:1, passing WCAG AAA.
Primary: Amethyst (#9B5DE5) is the most saturated mid-tone; use it for buttons and links (3.17:1 against the background, fine for UI elements).
Accent: Grape (#643490) for highlights, badges and hover states.

2 of 6 color pairs pass WCAG AA (4.5:1); the strongest is Ink on Lavender at 13.32:1.
