Colour Pairings
Pairings to use
Text should always be easy to read. These pairings strike the right balance between clarity and contrast, while letting our vibrant shapes do the talking. Stick to primary colours for text and use accent colours subtly, so the overall design remains clean and accessible.
Pairings to avoid
Some colour combos just don’t work—especially when text sits on top. These pairings lack contrast and make content harder to read, distracting from our bold brand visuals.Avoid using these in layouts to keep designs accessible and impactful.
