Palettes built around it
Neobank
Open in tool →Purple-and-lime is the challenger-bank uniform — high energy, and clearly not a legacy bank.
Atelier
Open in tool →Black on bone with a whisper of gold: the runway default that lets garments carry the color.
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.
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.
Garnet
Open in tool →Garnet, carnelian and citrine on a wine-black — the warm jewel set for spirits, theatre and jewellery itself.
