The mood

Clear indigo makes a shared print studio feel focused after the ink is rolled away. Mint text keeps the landing page open, apricot introduces membership plans, citron brings the reservation step forward, and muted violet gives the calendar a quieter supporting layer.

How to use it

Studio Indigo carries the hero, navigation, availability overview, and confirmation footer with Press Mint text. Apricot Plan, Citron Slot, and Calendar Violet should appear as separate cards directly on that indigo field. Their boundaries against indigo reach 5.33:1, 8.08:1, and 4.67:1, so each card remains distinct without an extra border color.

Inside every light card, switch the labels to Studio Indigo: membership details sit on apricot, available studio slots and the reserve action sit on citron, and dates, equipment categories, and selected times sit on violet. Give the canvas 48% of the surface, plans 30%, and reservation steps 22%; violet works as the calendar layer outside that balance.

What to watch

Press Mint passes only on Studio Indigo, at about 9.02:1. It fails on Apricot Plan at 1.69:1, Citron Slot at 1.12:1, and Calendar Violet at 1.93:1. Studio Indigo is the required text color on those surfaces, passing at 5.33:1, 8.08:1, and 4.67:1. Keep the three light cards separated by indigo gutters because their mutual contrasts range from 1.14:1 to 1.73:1.

A considered balance

Make room for
the right colors.

Use Studio Indigo for the landing-page canvas with Press Mint navigation and headings. Place Apricot Plan, Citron Slot, and Calendar Violet as separate cards on indigo, and use Studio Indigo for all text inside those cards.

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.

Text on primary
1.69:1 #DFF5E8 on #E9AE83 · Not suitable for text

Recommended text on primary

The original text has low contrast (1.69:1). This example uses Studio Indigo (#34309A) from the same palette instead of #DFF5E8 on #E9AE83, improving contrast to 5.33:1. This meets WCAG AA for normal text.

Recommended text on highlight

The original text has low contrast (1.12:1). This example uses Studio Indigo (#34309A) from the same palette instead of #DFF5E8 on #D7F04B, improving contrast to 8.08:1. This meets WCAG AA for normal text.

Text on accent
1.93:1 #DFF5E8 on #B6A9C9 · Not suitable for text

Recommended text on accent

The original text has low contrast (1.93:1). This example uses Studio Indigo (#34309A) from the same palette instead of #DFF5E8 on #B6A9C9, improving contrast to 4.67:1. 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.

COLOR NOTE

Press Mint works only on Studio Indigo at 9.02:1. Use Studio Indigo text on apricot at 5.33:1, citron at 8.08:1, and violet at 4.67:1. Light card pairs reach only 1.14:1 to 1.73:1, so place each directly on indigo with indigo gutters.

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: 9.02:1. 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.
