Mono color palette explained

The mono color palette pairs #374151 as its primary hue with #2c3441 as the accent. The palette is balanced for mono aesthetics while keeping text readable against the surface color.

Every swatch is derived from the same two anchor colors, so the color palette 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 #374151 → #9CA3AF gradient applied to a phone screen, a primary button, and a wave pattern so you can see how the mono look plays out in a real interface.
