Five colors, endless possibilities. Select a color to copy its HEX.
A calm cinema-campaign palette with blue-gray walls, muted green title fields, taupe selection, silver notes, and forest type.
The feeling
A quiet cinema planning wall built from cool gray, muted green, and dark taupe
Explore this palette ↓A pale blue-gray planning wall cools a neighborhood cinema campaign, while muted green gives the film-title material a steady visual center. Dark taupe and silver organize decisions without turning the board into a bright promotional display.
Set the planning field in Projection Haze with Forest Caption headings and screening copy at 10.94:1. Use Marquee Green as broad title bands with Forest Caption text at 4.71:1. A Taupe Frame separates each green band from the wall, passing against Marquee Green at 3.48:1 and Projection Haze at 8.09:1.
Use Taupe Frame as the selected-material strip with Projection Haze text at 8.09:1, plus a pointer and the words “Selected material.” Silver Note holds screening notes in Forest Caption at 6.97:1. When a silver note touches the wall, use Taupe Frame as its exact separator; taupe passes against Silver Note at 5.15:1 and Projection Haze at 8.09:1. Allocate 51% blue gray, 33% green, and 16% taupe, keeping silver for notes and small planning fields.
Forest Caption fails on Taupe Frame at 1.35:1, so taupe strips require blue-gray text. Marquee Green and Projection Haze reach only 2.32:1, and Silver Note and the wall only 1.57:1; both need the named taupe separator. Marquee Green and Silver Note are 1.48:1 apart, so keep title bands and note fields from forming an unlabeled edge.
A considered balance
Build a fictional cinema campaign board on Projection Haze with Forest Caption headings. Use Marquee Green for film-title bands and Silver Note for screening notes. Separate both from the wall with Taupe Frame. Mark the selected material with a taupe strip, light text, a pointer, and a visible label.
Start with a generous background, introduce your primary color, then use the highlight sparingly. The ratios are a guide for large surfaces, not a fixed recipe.

Background · Primary · Highlight. Use text and accent colors where their roles call for them.
Recommended text on highlight
The original text has low contrast (1.35:1). This example uses Projection Haze (#DCE4E8) from the same palette instead of #173028 on #4A3D38, improving contrast to 8.09:1. This meets WCAG AA for normal text.
Contrast is calculated for these specific pairs. Large text means at least 24 px regular or about 18.7 px bold. Check every pairing in your final design.

If an explicit requirement conflicts with this color guide, identify the conflict instead of silently overriding it. Text: Forest Caption #173028 Primary: Marquee Green #7C9D86 Highlight: Taupe Frame #4A3D38 Accent: Silver Note #AEB8BC Background: Projection Haze #DCE4E8 Mood: A quiet cinema planning wall built from cool gray, muted green, and dark taupe Suggested uses: Brand campaigns Application note: Build a fictional cinema campaign board on Projection Haze with Forest Caption headings. Use Marquee Green for film-title bands and Silver Note for screening notes. Separate both from the wall with Taupe Frame. Mark the selected material with a taupe strip, light text, a pointer, and a visible label. Avoid: Use Forest Caption on Projection Haze at 10.94:1, Marquee Green at 4.71:1, and Silver Note at 6.97:1. Never use forest text on Taupe Frame at 1.35:1; reverse to Projection Haze at 8.09:1. Use Taupe Frame between the wall and either green title bands or silver notes. Use approximately 51% background, 33% primary, and 16% highlight across large surfaces. These ratios are a starting point, not a rigid rule. Use text and accent colors according to their roles. Keep the original HEX values. Choose readable text/background pairings without silently changing the palette. Do not introduce unrelated colors.

Background is the canvas, text is readable copy, primary is a key surface, highlight draws attention, and accent adds small secondary details.

Text/background contrast: 10.94:1. This is one measured pair, not a guarantee for the whole palette. Check every actual text/background pairing against WCAG AA. Prefer readable combinations from the original colors, keep visible keyboard focus, and never communicate state through color alone. If no original pairing meets the requirement, propose a separately labeled derived color with its original HEX, proposed HEX, purpose and measured contrast. Never overwrite the source palette.
This guide preserves the original HEX values. Review the output before using it.
