Synthwave Color Palettes
Synthwave colour is a night-drive horizon: hot magenta, deep indigo and a single laser cyan cutting across the dark. Split-complementary tension is what makes the neon feel electric instead of muddy. Its main colours include lilac (#a09af6), aquamarine (#83f7e7), salmon (#f68062), violet (#aa1be6), cardinal (#c10d4a), built as a split complementary set around 310° on the colour wheel. Hex and RGB values for each swatch are listed below for quick copy.

About synthwave color palettes
These 24 synthwave palettes lock to a magenta-violet hue near 310° at a high 86% saturation, so accents stay punchy on dark grounds. Lightness spans roughly 18% to 76%, letting you park a deep indigo sky under blazing highlights.
Split-complementary structure places cyan opposite the magenta family, with indigo filling the cool gap. Keep cyan scarce; one laser line is enough to sell the grid-horizon mood.
Flood backgrounds with indigo and near-black violet, put magenta on titles and primary actions, and use cyan only for thin lines, cursors or status dots. If cyan covers more than a sliver of the layout, the palette tips into generic neon.

Synthwave color palette FAQ
What colours define synthwave?
A classic set combines lilac (#a09af6), aquamarine (#83f7e7), salmon (#f68062) with deep indigo support. Hot magenta, night indigo and one cyan accent in split-complementary balance are the core formula.
What hex codes should I use for synthwave UI?
Primary codes include #a09af6, #83f7e7, #f68062, #aa1be6, #c10d4a, #05935f, #2b6806, #5f054d, centred near #df11bd. Keep saturation high on accents and very low on the night sky behind them.
How do I balance synthwave neon without eye strain?
Let dark indigo own at least two-thirds of the screen, reserve magenta for headings and buttons, and treat cyan as a hairline accent. Soften large fills; keep only edges and glyphs at full chroma.
