Athens Colour Palette
Athens is where ancient marble meets the deepest blue sky in Europe. The Greek flag blue of the Plaka shopfronts, the warm honey of Pentelic marble under golden hour light, the dusty olive of the hillsides, and the terracotta of rooftop tiles. This is not just another earthy palette; it is Greece with the blue turned up. For cultural brands, education, architecture, travel, and anything that wants to feel both timeless and Mediterranean.

Usage guidance
Pentelic Marble gives you a warm, stone-like background with more character than plain white. Greek Blue is your primary, the blue of the Greek flag and every painted shutter in the Plaka, use it for headings, links, and navigation. Acropolis Gold brings warmth for secondary elements, badges, and highlights, the colour of sunlight on ancient stone. Olive Hill adds a natural accent for success states, tags, and supporting elements. Attic Night keeps body text grounded with the darkness of an Athenian evening. Lead with the blue, accent with the gold.
