Case Study: Redesigning a Website’s Color Scheme Using HexTints

See how a messy palette becomes a predictable, scalable system.

Goals

• Clarify brand color and its hover/pressed states.
• Ensure 4.5:1 contrast for text.
• Reduce palette entropy across components.

Process

1. Audit existing tokens and contrast.
2. Pick a base hex for brand and run it through HexTints.
3. Lock hover/pressed steps and document usage.

Result: fewer tokens, clearer states, better accessibility.
