Color / A considered starting point

Teal color palettes.

Move between deep petrol controls and pale aqua panels while keeping one clear interaction color.

The collection

Original sRGB combinations. Each detail page includes website roles, CSS and measured pairs.

Make the colors work

More than a set of swatches.

Choose an anchor, then a counterpoint

Turquoise Punch uses deep teal for actions and pink for supporting highlights. Deep Lagoon uses a dark base with a lighter aqua action. Compare those roles before trying to force the same teal into both a light and a dark interface.

Separate near-neighbor categories

Teal and green can look distinct in isolated swatches but become hard to tell apart in a small chart. Give data categories labels and shapes, and test representative chart sizes. The color-vision preview helps inspect a direction; it cannot promise universal distinguishability.

Let the imagery influence the surface

Aqua surfaces can echo water or glass imagery, but they can also compete with it. Keep image captions on a checked surface and compare a neutral alternative. The image extractor gives you source colors; the generator lets you assign their jobs.
