Color Palette of the Month: September 2025
September always brings a shift — the light softens, the air cools, and creativity settles into a slower, more grounded rhythm. This month’s palettes are chosen to echo that gentle change in mood. Each one holds five coordinating hues (with HEX codes you can copy straight into Canva, Figma, or your website) so you can build your next project with ease.
How to Use These Palettes
Pick one hero color for headlines or key focal points.
Use one supporting color for large blocks or backgrounds.
Reserve one or two accent colors for links, icons, or small UI elements.
Keep the darkest shade for text, so readability stays grounded.

How to Bring These Palettes Into Your Work
Use Harvest & Hearth for warm, cozy, earthy tones that still feel grounded.
Try Moss & Lichen if you want soft greens with a quiet forest spirit.
Plum Market gives a moodier, jewel-toned option with elegance and depth.
Slate Rain brings cool, muted blues and grays — perfect for subtle, calming layouts.
Coastal Cedar balances warmth and cool tones — soft neutrals + a touch of green.
In your next project, you might combine one of these palettes with your existing brand tones, or let one stand on its own for editorial features, social graphics, or mood boards.
