Soda Pop

Also known as: Chimes, Mélange Green, Pine Glade, Celery Green

A blue counterpart from the complementary harmony gives it the most tension. For accessible text, use it on black or near-black backgrounds (11.70:1, passes WCAG AA) rather than white.

Where Soda Pop works

  • Web & UI: A supporting-cast color for UI: chart fills, tags, empty-state illustrations — not text.
  • Interiors: Strong for a whole room, excellent in doses: an accent wall, cabinetry, or a statement chair.
  • Fashion: Wears best as the statement piece — a top, scarf, or shoes — against neutral basics.
  • Branding: A secondary brand color by nature: it supports a stronger primary and shines in illustration.
