Home Computer Colour Palette
A measured editorial palette recalling the calm glow of a home computer desk, balancing softened cool neutrals with a precise phosphor-like highlight. It feels considered and tactile rather than nostalgic costume, with enough contrast for clear hierarchy and long-form reading.

Usage guidance
Use Paper Cassette as the main background and Graphite Keyboard for body text and interface framing.

Reserve Amber Cursor for brief calls to action, status indicators, and small moments of emphasis. Keep Amber Cursor sparse and pair it with Graphite Keyboard or Paper Cassette for legibility.
