Why it works and how to use it
It works because the lightness range is wide (14% to 95%), which gives clear hierarchy between background, content and accents. Try it for websites, presentations and branding.
- Background: Linen (#F6F1EE) is the lightest color, so it belongs on large surfaces.
- Text: Raisin (#2B1F1E) on #F6F1EE gives 14.22:1, passing WCAG AAA.
- Primary: Chestnut (#A63D40) is the most saturated mid-tone; use it for buttons and links (5.57:1 against the background, fine for UI elements).
- Accent: Fog (#D9CFC9) for highlights, badges and hover states.
3 of 6 color pairs pass WCAG AA (4.5:1); the strongest is Linen on Raisin at 14.22:1.
