Acai
Also known as: Deep Plum, Queen’s Domain, Wonka Purple, Galactic Wonder
Part of the purple family, Acai pairs a rich base with a regal and mysterious presence — ideal for premium packaging and fantasy themes. Set it against a green accent when you want the combination to pop. It's dark enough to use for text on white backgrounds (12.04:1, passes WCAG AA).
