How to use it
Suggested roles: #3D0560 as the background, #7E2B74 for cards and surfaces, #AB2072 as the primary brand color, #580B66 as the accent, and #FEEDF0 for text (a computed lighter shade of Terracotta, 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.
