Colour palettes for interfaces

A modern, restrained gold. Gold is the accent, ~5–10% of the interface.

Slate blue, burnt orange, cool white. Industrial and technical.

Pure neon on near-black. Cyberpunk, high contrast.

Sleek and contemporary. Colour communicates meaning: teal everyday, red and amber reserved.

Ocean blue with sun yellow, orange, cyan and a little purple.

Violet-led, dark only. Near-black stays in charge.

Teal-led reworking of Nocturne. Deep-ocean character.

Burgundy recedes, mint catches the eye. Dark only.

Pink for identity, red for urgency, cream for text.

Black first, shiraz second. Ruby is reserved for accents; the light theme uses warm, pink-tinted neutrals rather than plain white and grey.

Quiet and atmospheric: almost-black blue-green through deep teal to icy highlights. Keep the palest colours for text and light surfaces, like light through frost.
