Color Harmonies
Six established ways to build a palette around #91EB33. Click any swatch to copy its value, or open it to see the full breakdown.
Complementary
The colour directly opposite on the wheel.
- Use it when
- Highest possible contrast between two hues. Use it when one element has to stand out against everything else: a call-to-action button, a highlight, a single focal point.
- Watch out
- Side by side at full saturation the edges appear to vibrate. Give one colour far less area than the other, or take saturation out of one of them.
Split-complementary
Instead of the opposite colour, the two next to it.
- Use it when
- Almost the contrast of a complementary pair, but noticeably calmer. A good default when complementary feels too harsh: one dominant colour, two accents.
- Watch out
- The two accents are close to each other. Keep them apart in the layout, or one will read as a mistake.
Analogous
Direct neighbours on the wheel.
- Use it when
- Naturally harmonious because the colours share undertones. Works well for backgrounds, gradients and calm interfaces where nothing should shout.
- Watch out
- Contrast between them is low. Do not rely on hue alone to separate interactive elements - vary lightness as well.
Triadic
Three hues at equal distance, 120 degrees apart.
- Use it when
- Vivid and balanced at the same time. Suits playful, illustrative work and anything that needs three clearly distinct categories.
- Watch out
- Three strong colours are hard to balance. Let one dominate and treat the other two as accents, otherwise the result looks restless.
Tetradic
Four hues forming two complementary pairs.
- Use it when
- The richest of the classic schemes. Useful when a design genuinely needs four distinct colours, for example a chart with four series.
- Watch out
- The hardest scheme to control. Choose one lead colour, use the rest sparingly, and watch the balance between warm and cool.
Monochromatic
One hue, stepped through lightness.
- Use it when
- Always coherent, because there is only one hue. The natural choice for interface hierarchies, single-series charts and restrained designs.
- Watch out
- Can read as flat. Add one neutral or a single accent colour wherever something needs to be noticed.
Using this color
The same colour behaves very differently depending on where it sits. The mockups show it leading a design; the cards below state contrast ratios, so you can see at a glance what holds up.

A second surface, drawn from the same palette.
Gradients between neighbouring hues stay clean. Across the wheel they pass through a muddy middle - keep those short.
#91EB33 leads; the supporting tones are taken from its own scale, so what you see is one colour doing the whole job.

Highlighted notice
A coloured edge draws attention without touching legibility.
Body copy with an inline link in the adjusted shade.
In a gradient
Neighbouring hues blend smoothly. Complements pass through a muddy middle, so keep that gradient short or add a stop.
How others see this colour
Around one in twelve men and one in two hundred women perceive colour differently. Two shades that look distinct to most people can collapse into one for them - which is why meaning should never rest on colour alone.
