How to use a dark color palette

  • A dark look comes as much from lightness and saturation as from hue, so keep new colors at a similar softness and depth.
  • Pick a dominant color, a supporting color and one accent; the remaining colors become tints and shades.
  • Check contrast for text, and test the palette in a real layout with the palette visualizer.
