Ten colour schemes

Bookkeeping green on paper. The traditional colour of a well-kept ledger — calm, solvent, nothing to hide.

Cobalt on cool grey. Banking heritage without banking stuffiness — the safest choice if accountants are the audience.

Manila envelopes and postal red. The materials of real paperwork, warmed up — receipts, not software.

Charcoal and old gold. For people who do their books at ten at night — quiet, low-glare, slightly luxurious.

Contemporary fintech green. Reads as modern money software immediately — the crowded-field option, executed cleanly.

Muted violet and warm grey. Deliberately unlike every bank and every rival — memorable without shouting.

Deep sea blue-green. Steady and unhurried — the feeling of a deadline that is under control.

White, near-black, one red. Editorial and severe — every use of colour means something, exactly like the product.

Olive and bone — English landscape rather than tech. Quietly rural, right for sole traders who are not "users".

Graphite and ochre. Tools, not toys — the palette of a well-made workbench, for trades who buy from Screwfix.
