In this context, "born from circulation" implies that the color scheme is inspired by the concept of continuous movement or flow, where the vibrant neon colors represent energy and dynamism. The black background serves as a canvas to showcase these lively colors, making the design stand out and draw attention.

The use of neon colors against a dark background creates a sense of modernity and futurism, making the attire or design appear bold and distinctive. The recirculation color scheme is often associated with futuristic or cyberpunk themes, where the combination of neon and black conveys a sense of technological advancement and a dynamic, ever-changing world.
