- 🌸 Cherry blossoms - Soft, muted accent colors
- 🎋 Bamboo forest - Natural green tones
- 🌅 Dawn sky - Warm orange/yellow highlights
- Better contrast ratios - Clearer distinction between text and background
- Softer on the eyes - Less saturated colors reduce eye strain
- Natural color harmony - Colors work together instead of competing

- ✅ Identical color schemes
