Palettes built around it
Terminal
Open in tool →Green for success, blue for links, pink for emphasis — the dark-mode developer family, tuned to sit on near-black without glare.
Neobank
Open in tool →Purple-and-lime is the challenger-bank uniform — high energy, and clearly not a legacy bank.
Noir Beauty
Open in tool →Black, gold and one deep red — the prestige cosmetics counter: all restraint and a single lipstick.
Ember
Open in tool →Flame orange on charcoal — the sports and energy palette; one accent yellow for stats and highlights.
Velvet
Open in tool →Burgundy and plum on near-black with a brass accent — theatre, wine, and anything that wants to feel after-dark.
Night Market
Open in tool →Orange, magenta and yellow neon on aubergine-black — the street-sign palette for food, nightlife and events.
Electric Lime
Open in tool →One neon on white with black type — lime-and-black is the neon that works in daylight; the orange is a second gear.
Graphite Mono
Open in tool →Five greys, no hue — the true monochrome; the accent is a lighter grey, so hierarchy comes from weight and size alone.
Ink Wash
Open in tool →Greys on near-black — the monochrome dark mode; keep everything a tint of white and the layout does the talking.
