Color Psychology

Every swatch belongs to the same family, Base Dark included, so trust, stability, calm run through the palette with nothing to argue against them. Base Dark and Raised Dark are close enough in hue and lightness that most people will read them as one colour, which makes them a pair to separate rather than two choices to spend. Highlight Dark is the loudest thing in the set and it is still cool, so every accent the palette offers recedes rather than advances.
