How to use these palettes

Start with the primary and surface colors, then test text contrast before exporting. These palettes are most useful for designer portfolios, studio pages, and editorial layouts. Use one off-white surface and one muted border tone so the page does not feel flat.

Minimal palettes use fewer saturated colors and rely on surface, border, and text separation for practical interface hierarchy.
