How to use a palette

Pick an aesthetic, generate until something fits, then assign roles: one background, one text, one accent. Don't use every swatch on every screen.

  • Vaporwave — pinks, cyans, purples; neon on dark
  • Cottagecore — soft greens, creams, muted florals
  • Dark academia — browns, burgundy, deep greens, parchment
  • Cyberpunk — near-black bases with electric accents
  • Minimal — neutrals plus one quiet accent

Trends move. Prefer a look that matches the product, not whatever is loudest on social this week. Always check contrast before shipping text on these colors.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often do aesthetics change?

Micro-trends flip quickly on social media. Broader looks (minimal, dark academia) stick around longer. Choose what fits the brand, not the feed of the week.

Can I mix aesthetics?

Yes, carefully. One dominant palette plus a small accent from another usually works better than a 50/50 blend of clashing moods.

How do I know it fits my brand?

Match audience and tone. Test on a landing section or social template before a full rebrand.

What if the look goes stale?

Keep colors in CSS variables so you can swap them without rebuilding layouts.

Are these palettes accessible?

Not automatically. Check contrast ratios and color-blind readability; nudge lightness or saturation while keeping the vibe.
