- **Gallery** (editorial, minimal, light) — #171717, #737373, #c2410c, #ffffff — Near-monochrome with one burnt-orange highlight — an art director's default because it never competes with the work. — tool: https://brandsweets.com/palettes/new/171717-737373-c2410c-ffffff — collection: https://brandsweets.com/palettes/editorial
- **Graphite Mono** (monochrome, neutral, minimal, modern) — #222222, #767676, #bdbdbd, #fafafa, #111111 — Five greys, no hue — the true monochrome; the accent is a lighter grey, so hierarchy comes from weight and size alone. — tool: https://brandsweets.com/palettes/new/222222-767676-bdbdbd-fafafa-111111 — collection: https://brandsweets.com/palettes/monochrome
