Lichen Mesa
Five stops tuned to sit together without fighting — #7a0028 ink anchors the set, #fc7d8e opens it up, and #b62146, #d6435f, #dc6173 cross the middle in a split-complementary arrangement. Lichen Mesa suits indie game interfaces with a strong day-night rhythm. The darkest and lightest stops clear AA as a text pair.
