August Health EHR. A humanist clinical surface that softens healthcare's typical sterility.

  • SaaS
  • Light theme
  • 14 colors
  • 2 typefaces

August Health uses a warm-clinical visual language: a soft cream canvas (#f8f3eb) replaces the cold white typical of healthcare SaaS, and shadows are tinted with warm brown rgba(75,68,57,0.1) rather than cool gray. The pairing of an editorial serif (Reckless Neue) with a geometric sans (Saans) gives the product an approachable, humanist feel appropriate for senior care, while a vivid indigo (#4865ff) anchors all primary actions. Color appears in concentrated bursts — circular portrait frames, tinted feature cards, and pill buttons — against an otherwise restrained neutral palette, creating rhythm and warmth without overwhelming the interface.
