Why it works and how to use it

The palette holds together thanks to its analogous hue relationship and a soft light-to-dark ladder (85% down to 60% lightness). A natural fit for websites, presentations and branding.

  • Background: Periwinkle (#B5CAFF) is the lightest color, so it belongs on large surfaces.
  • Text: Slate Blue (#7767E2) on #B5CAFF gives 2.67:1, so pair it with a darker neutral for body copy.
  • Primary: Mauve (#CCA7FC) is the most saturated mid-tone; use it for buttons and links with a border or a darker shade for contrast.
  • Accent: Cornflower (#4C9AE4) for highlights, badges and hover states.

No pair inside the palette reaches 4.5:1, so add black or white for body text.
