Using it

Do

  • Use chalk and warm off-paper fields generously; most screens should be neutral breathing room, not saturated color.
  • Let digital lavender be the primary identity accent and pair it with mineral green for trust and calm.
  • Use butter yellow and warm clay as memory notes in small panels, badges, and illustration details.
  • Use graphite text on chalk/sand surfaces for older-audience trust and long-form legibility.
  • Use cocoa/graphite for durable contrast in navigation, charts, and captions.

Avoid

  • Do not push lavender or electric blue into neon/cyberpunk saturation.
  • Do not let coral dominate; keep it muted and functional so it avoids millennial-pink cliché.
  • Do not set body text in muted, silver, butter, or lavender on chalk; reserve those for accents or large display.
  • Do not stack many pastel fills without graphite/cocoa anchors; that creates low-contrast mush.
  • Do not use pure black or pure white; the palette depends on chalk, graphite, and cocoa warmth.
