Cornish granite

I was shocked to find that it’s been over a year since I’ve added to this site. How rubbish of me. Definitely time for another colour scheme!

These colours were inspired by a photo that we took whilst on a walk by the sea near where we live. It’s some exposed granite on the cliffs at Cot Valley.

I droppered some colours from the photo and then tweaked them to get some good contrast for accessibility:

1. #48484a and #c6cece Example 1.1 Example 1.2
2. #48484a and #ffffff Example 2.1 Example 2.2
3. #263f2c and #a0af7f Example 3.1 Example 3.2
4. #263f2c and #ffffff Example 4.1 Example 4.2
