Discord

Discord corporate palette, anchored on Blurple (#5865F2) — the saturated indigo-purple that has been Discord's signature brand color since the 2021 brand refresh (an updated, more accessible hue evolved from the original 2015 #7289DA Blurple). The Discord product is dark-first: the canonical client surface renders Blurple and a small set of authored neutrals on a deep gray-blue canvas (#313338 / #1E1F22) that lets motion, emoji, and voice-state color carry the brand voice.

Notes
Discord is dark-first by canonical identity: the desktop and mobile Discord client renders on a near-black gray-blue canvas with the Blurple used on the mark, the primary CTAs, and key affordances. The light-mode role mapping is an authored inversion supporting Discord's user-selectable light theme; the brand-identity surface on discord.com marketing is still dark-canvas-dominant. Old Blurple (#7289DA) is retained as a deprecated reference for pre-2021 applications.
