A system, ready to go

Good colors.
Better together.

Lock the colors you love before shuffling. Contrast ratings help you choose readable text; they don’t certify a whole interface.

:root {
  --color-1: #7b2f37;
  --color-2: #9c4b3c;
  --color-3: #ba784c;
  --color-4: #c7a76d;
  --color-5: #d4cd8e;
  --color-6: #d9e0af;
}
A look under the surface

Useful by design.
Curious by nature.

Harmonies rotate a base hue around the HSL color wheel. Contrast uses WCAG relative luminance. The rating on each swatch applies to its suggested foreground text against that background.

contrast = (lighter + 0.05) / (darker + 0.05)
complement = (hue + 180) % 360
