OKLCH palette for quiet interfaces

Warm stone,
soft clay,
deep plum.

inm is a low-chroma color system for editorial tools, portfolios, dashboards, and creative product UI. It ships with semantic tokens, light and dark modes, and APCA-informed contrast guidance.

Plum Black Clay Rose Mist Gray Warm Stone

Four anchors, tuned into UI tokens.

The original anchors stay visible, while semantic tokens do the day-to-day work: canvas, surface, raised layers, text, borders, accent actions, and cool support states.

Plum Black

Deep structure, dark canvas, and high-trust framing.

#3E343F

Clay Rose

Brand accent, active controls, and gentle emphasis.

#A1736B

Mist Gray

Cool support tone for statuses, metadata, and balance.

#979F9B

Warm Stone

The light canvas: calm, tactile, and easy to scan.

#C9BFB6

Light and dark share the same behavior.

Both modes keep the same semantic roles, so a product can switch mood without rewriting component logic or losing hierarchy.
