Monochrome Charcoal Palette

Using this palette

Slightly warmer than a true neutral gray ramp (compare minimalist-mono) — these hexes carry the faintest brown undertone the way real charcoal and graphite do on paper, which reads as more organic and less clinical than a pure RGB-gray scale. #1A1A1A and #2E2E2E both clear AAA on white; #C4C4C4 is right at the edge and should be treated as a border/divider tone rather than text. Good as a dark-mode base for creative-tool or design-software brands where 'gray' needs to feel handmade rather than corporate; if the brand needs true neutrality with zero warmth, use minimalist-mono instead.
