One accent color
The rule: the interface stays black and white, and the photography stays the loudest thing on the page. One accent color is allowed in exactly three places - big banner cards like the challenge winner below, the live dot next to Challenges, and the occasional highlight. Here are four candidates, each applied to the same winner banner. Scroll, compare, pick one.
1. Kente Gold
#C08A2D · deep #8F6516 · tint #F6ECD9Gold thread, kente, Ashanti gold. The most Ghanaian pick and the most fashion-forward. Dark ink text sits on it, which keeps the monochrome feel.
2. Forest Green
#1E4D3B · deep #143528 · tint #E4EEE8Ghana flag green, deepened to tailoring-house green. Calm, trustworthy, premium. Paper-white text on it.
3. Batik Indigo
#2B3A67 · deep #1E2947 · tint #E5E9F2West African dye cloth. Reads modern and digital; the safest for a tech product, the least distinctly Ghanaian of the four.
4. Burnt Clay
#A6432D · deep #7C2F1E · tint #F4E4DEEarth, pottery, northern Ghana. Warm and human. Popular in Afrocentric branding right now, so less ownable.
