Midcentury palette
Flaxen Gallery
Five midcentury stops with room to breathe — #8e2d22 grounds, #ba5a4c and #d97566 do the talking, #e18b7d softens, #ffa798 lifts. The monochromatic bones keep it coherent across book covers that read at thumbnail size. The darkest and lightest stops clear AA for large text.
