Art deco design system explained

The art deco design system pairs #22D3EE as its primary hue with #A855F7 as the accent. The palette is balanced for art deco aesthetics while keeping text readable against the surface color.

Every swatch is derived from the same two anchor colors, so the design system stays harmonious across backgrounds, borders, buttons, and hover states. Copy the CSS below or open it in your favorite tool and apply it immediately.

Use the preview image as a starting point for your own mockups. It shows the exact #22D3EE → #A855F7 gradient applied to a phone screen, a primary button, and a wave pattern so you can see how the art deco look plays out in a real interface.
