About this palette

This 4-color vibrant palette runs from Butterscotch (#FCB241) as its lightest tone to Bellflower (#5A67A6) as its darkest. It blends Cobalite, Bellflower, Butterscotch and Fleur de Sel Caramel into a single set you can drop straight into a UI. None of the 6 in-palette color pairings clear the WCAG AA contrast threshold (4.5:1), so pair these colors with black or white for body text.

A versatile palette suitable for marketing pages, product hero blocks, illustrations, and accent UI states.
