About Peppy Peacock

Peppy Peacock looks like a minty teal ink that didn't wait for the room lighting to soften it. It's lighter than , but it keeps more of that blue-green snap, so it never slips into the calmer, settled vibe of or the slightly greener tint of .

For UI work, I use it when I need dashboards and finance apps to feel fresh without getting pushed toward cyan overload. Think selection states, card fills, and progress or status accents in health admin screens, fintech tables, and onboarding panels. It reads as the one I reach for when you want the highlight to feel present, not muddy. Compared to , it holds its clarity a bit longer in midtones.

Quirk: on very cool dark backgrounds, it can pull slightly toward blue. If your type is cool gray, consider a touch warmer contrast so the teal stays confident.
