About the palette

Champagne leads with a deep champagne gold #8C6A2F on cream #FAF8F3, then aubergine #5A3E6E and claret #8A3E4C. It's quiet luxury for wealth-management, property and private-banking reports.

Teal #3E6E78, heather #6A5A8A and harbour navy #2E4A62 make up the rest. All series are dark enough for 3:1 on white, so thin performance lines stay visible in print. Text is #1C1A16 at 17.3:1. Keep the gold for the client's own portfolio and draw benchmarks in navy, so the eye goes to the money that matters to the reader first.

Palette profile

Computed from the colours on this page, not written by hand: hue spread, lightness range, contrast and a colour-vision simulation of the first six chart colours.

Best for

  • Bar, column and line charts with four or five series (5 hue families).
  • Thin line charts and sparklines on white cards: every chart colour reaches 4.2:1 or more.
  • Variance charts, waterfalls and KPI deltas: good #3E6E4A and bad #9E3B3B are 135° apart in hue.

Colour-vision simulation

  • Protanopia: series 1 and 6 (#8C6A2F, #A0705A); series 4 and 5 (#3E6E78, #6A5A8A)
  • Deuteranopia: series 1 and 6 (#8C6A2F, #A0705A); series 4 and 5 (#3E6E78, #6A5A8A)
  • Tritanopia: series 1 and 6 (#8C6A2F, #A0705A)
  • Give those series data labels or direct labels instead of relying on the legend.

A Power BI map visual titled "NOI by city". Purpose: Bubble size = net operating income. It sits in a 456×456 px slot on a designed report page. Match the report's brand: data colours #8C6A2F, #5A3E6E, #8A3E4C, #3E6E78, #6A5A8A, #A0705A; background #FFFFFF; text #1C1A16; font Segoe UI. Transparent visual background so the page design shows through; no visual border. The report uses the Champagne Power BI theme.

Questions about this theme

Is the Champagne theme accessible?

Yes. Text and muted text meet WCAG AA (4.5:1) on both the page and card colours, and every data and status colour reaches at least 3:1 against the cards. In a colour-vision simulation 5 pairs among the first six chart colours look alike; the palette profile lists them so you can add data labels. The full contrast table is on this page.

Which fonts does the Champagne theme use?

It uses Georgia for headings and Segoe UI for body text. All of them are in Power BI's own font list, so the report renders the same in Power BI Desktop and in the Power BI service.

How do I import a theme JSON into Power BI?

In Power BI Desktop go to the Design ribbon → Import theme and select the downloaded .json file; in the Power BI service use View → Theme pane (older Desktop builds: View → Themes → Browse for themes). The data colours, text classes and visual defaults apply to every page of the report.

Which theme JSON schema do these themes use?

They are compiled against the current report theme schema (reportThemeSchema-2.159) and include name, dataColors, background, foreground, tableAccent, good/neutral/bad, textClasses and visualStyles.
