About this palette

This 5-color muted palette runs from Hera Blue (#8181EC) as its lightest tone to Cold Steel (#272635) as its darkest. It blends Olive Paste, Hera Blue, Arcane Brew, Mystification and Cold Steel 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.

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