How to use this palette
Suggested projects
Warm editorial landing pages, independent creative studios and illustrated portfolios.
Composition tip
Let the almost-white cream carry most of the layout. Use the near-black ink for paragraphs and the orange for a small number of high-priority actions.
Contrast caution
Orange on pale peach can feel energetic but may not provide enough contrast for small text; reserve that pairing for decorative elements unless checked.
Identify which colors are genuinely darkest and lightest before assigning roles. Darker swatches often work well for text, while lighter tones can create breathing room. A middle swatch can start as an accent—not an automatically accessible button color. The same five colors can produce very different designs depending on how much area each receives.
Contrast example
Highest-contrast pair in this palette: #191C2B on #FDF8F2 · 16.00:1 · passes the WCAG AA 4.5:1 threshold for normal text.
This shows the best text/background pairing among these five swatches, not a guarantee for every possible pairing. Test smaller labels, links, disabled states and focus indicators separately.
