About this palette

This 5-color earthy palette runs from Zircon (#DEE3E2) as its lightest tone to Double Jeopardy (#4F7969) as its darkest. It blends Zircon, Elegant Light Rose, Meadow Blossom Blue, Red Geranium and Double Jeopardy into a single set you can drop straight into a UI. None of the 10 in-palette color pairings clear the WCAG AA contrast threshold (4.5:1), so pair these colors with black or white for body text.

Grounded, natural tones — suits sustainability/organic brands, coffee shops, outdoor gear, and warm editorial typography.
