Stormy sea colour palette: moody blue-grey hex codes for your planner

Storm, slate, sea mist and foam. Blue-greys from nearly black to nearly white: a rough sea seen from somewhere warm and dry.

Where each colour goes

Colour	Hex	Use it for
Work (storm)	#26343B	Work blocks, in the darkest storm grey
Health (slate)	#4F6B75	Walks in any weather, in slate
Personal (sea mist)	#9DB4BA	Evenings in, in a pale sea mist
Goals (foam)	#E6ECEB	Your goals, in a light foam
Accent (storm)	#26343B	Buttons, today’s date and highlights
Protected time (foam)	#E6ECEB	A soft wash over your protected time

Moody, and easy on the eyes

Grey-blues are low in colour, so a full week in them never feels busy. The four steps from dark to light keep your categories clear. On your week, Anser draws events as soft tints, so the storm grey shows gently; choose Bold in Settings › Appearance › Colours if you’d like it darker.

Your week in stormy sea

The week at the top of this post is a real week in Anser, in the Summer Picnic style with the Bold look for categories, so every event shows its full colour. To get the same look, open Settings › Appearance › Colours › How categories look and choose Bold. The palette works in every style.

A head-down kind of week

• Two focus blocks a day. Door closed.
• Go out in the weather once. Then come back in.
• A hot drink at four.
• Stop on time. The sea will still be there.

Make it in Anser

The quickest way: tap Use this palette in Anser on the palette. It opens on your own week, to keep or undo. To set it up by hand:

1. In Anser, open Settings › Categories. Tap the colour next to Work and paste its hex code. Do the same for Health, Personal and Goals.
2. Open Settings › Appearance › Colours and tap Save as my palette, so you can switch back any time.
3. Still in Colours, under Accent, choose Your own and paste the accent.
4. Open Settings › Boundaries › How protected time looks, choose Your own and paste the protected time colour. It also colours your Deep Focus time.

Changed your mind? Your saved palettes are under See all in Settings › Appearance › Colours.

Pair it with a calm week
