In this palette the hues fall in the green, violet, red and teal families, spread across 251 degrees of the OKLCH hue circle. Vivid palettes keep chroma between 0.15 and 0.26, and lightness between 52% and 82%, which is why the set feels consistent.
Temperature and mood
Overall the palette is temperature-balanced: 1 of its 5 chromatic colors lean warm and 1 lean cool. Its average chroma of 0.149 makes the saturation rich.
That combination suits app and product marketing, event posters and social media graphics, and it is a good fit when you want a design to feel lively, bold and full of contrast.
Accessibility and contrast
The strongest pairing is Moss (#168058) with Lilac (#C1B3FC) at a contrast ratio of 2.60:1, which is below the WCAG AA minimum of 4.5:1. Across all 10 possible pairs, 0 reach the 4.5:1 AA level for normal text and 0 more reach 3:1 for large text.
No other palette color reaches 4.5:1 on the background (#C1B3FC), so this page suggests #062015 for text, a darkened Moss that reaches 9.07:1. Check any pair you use in the contrast checker.
All five colors stay distinguishable under protanopia, deuteranopia and tritanopia simulations, which is a good sign, although it is no substitute for testing with real users.
How to use it
Suggested roles: #C1B3FC as the background, #785FE6 for cards and surfaces, #F8631B as the primary brand color, #03CEB1 as the accent, and #062015 for text (a computed darker shade of Moss, because no palette color is readable on that background). A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
Choose one hue to dominate, one to support and one for small accents, so the palette stays lively without becoming chaotic.
