Why it works and how to use it
It works because the lightness range is wide (24% to 72%), which gives clear hierarchy between background, content and accents. Try it for websites, presentations and branding.
- Background: Hot Pink (#F778A5) is the lightest color, so it belongs on large surfaces.
- Text: Iron (#443841) on #F778A5 gives 4.34:1, enough for large headings only.
- Primary: Chili (#BC0021) is the most saturated mid-tone; use it for buttons and links with a border or a darker shade for contrast.
- Accent: Dove Gray (#73647E) for highlights, badges and hover states.
