How to use it
Suggested roles: #D7FFF3 as the background, #EDCAD9 for cards and surfaces, #EAC1CC as the primary brand color, #D2EFE8 as the accent, and #01201A for text (a computed darker shade of Silver, because no palette color is readable on that background). A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
Give one side of the wheel to the background and structure and the other to calls to action. A small amount of the opposing hue goes a long way.
