Considerations: Similar hues can blur boundaries; add labels and neutral spacing.
Design example: Use the middle hue for a hero panel and its neighbors for decorative cards.

Make it readable.

Check the selected color against your text or background color.

AA requires 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text. This checks color contrast, not full WCAG compliance.

A little theory. A lot to explore.

PALUNEXA rotates hues on the HSL color wheel and keeps saturation and lightness unchanged. Monochromatic palettes vary lightness instead. Harmony is a starting point for design, not a guarantee of aesthetic fit.
