Midcentury palette
River Beacon
Five stops tuned to sit together without fighting — #9e1028 ink anchors the set, #ffaaa8 opens it up, and #cc4b51, #ec686b, #f28181 cross the middle in a split-complementary arrangement. River Beacon suits music artwork with loud darks and a glowing accent. The darkest and lightest stops clear AA as a text pair.
