In this palette the hues fall in the rose, green and blue families, spread across 238 degrees of the OKLCH hue circle. Muted palettes keep chroma between 0.035 and 0.09, and lightness between 48% and 84%, which is why the set feels consistent.

A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
