Understand the combination

Neon palette

Uses vivid colors and bright accents to make color appear self-luminous.

Neon lighting

Adds the glow of colored artificial illumination from a light source.

Neon palette supplies vivid color range and bright accents, while neon lighting supplies colored illumination from a source. Their combination creates a luminous impression beyond color alone.
