شفشاون الأزرق
Chefchaouen al-Azraq · Chefchaouen Blue
Cascading blue-washed walls of the Rif mountain town believed to cool, purify, and repel mosquitoes.
In Practice
The palette, applied.
Three mock compositions built only from the colors above — a designer’s proof that cultural palettes translate into production surfaces.
Editorial · Poster
Lime Highlight grounds the field while Chaouen Cobalt carries the display voice — a pairing built for titling weight.
Product · Packaging
Chaouen Cobalt takes the front face; Cedar Beam returns as a narrow band — a tested retail hierarchy.
Digital · Interface
Lime Highlight canvas, Doorway Indigo type, Chaouen Cobalt call-to-action — WCAG-legible contrast without leaving the palette.
Give your design a meaningful narrative — not just a color, but the reason it belongs.
