The palette of a carnival at night: blazing scarlet, electric cobalt, citrine yellow, and the warm ivory of painted wood. Bold, festive, and slightly nostalgic.

Carnival Lights draws from the primary color exuberance of traveling fairs and amusement parks — the painted wood, the bare bulb strings, the vivid canvas banners. The palette is unapologetically bold and slightly nostalgic, working best in campaigns that want festive energy without becoming saccharine. The warm gray anchor keeps the palette from becoming purely childlike.
