Colour pairings & usage tips

Use these colours.

Keep coral as the warm focal colour and use the cooler companion for surrounding shapes. Let one lead rather than dividing every area equally between them.

Text & contrast.

A coral and teal pair can feel distinct without providing enough text contrast. Use their opposition for decoration and test any functional text or icon separately.

A pairing to start with.

In Radiant Amethyst & Paprika, #1B94AB against #96E445 has a contrast ratio of 2.30:1. Keep this pair decorative and choose a higher-contrast foreground for text. This checks opaque colours only; use the contrast checker to review text in a palette preview. Transparency and gradients need their own checks.

The five swatches span 62–84% OKLCH lightness. Try different colour roles in the palette generator.
