How to use it
Suggested roles: #FCA4CE as the background, #C06DD0 for cards and surfaces, #FD59E5 as the primary brand color, #9A64C5 as the accent, and #1C162B for text (a computed darker shade of Iris, because no palette color is readable on that background). A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
Let one hue lead and let the others support it. Keep one color noticeably lighter or darker than the rest so the layout has a clear focal point.
