Suggested color roles

primary

#B8B8D1 (Soft Lavender Grey): Establishes a sophisticated, gentle foundation, suitable for main sections or background accents.

secondary

#CDCDED (Pale Periwinkle): A versatile, slightly lighter tone for subheadings, subtle buttons, or content dividers.

accent

#E6E6F5 (Very Pale Lavender): Use sparingly for delicate highlights, hover states, or to add a hint of color to pure white areas.

background

#FFFFFF (Pure White): The cleanest, brightest base for maximum readability and a sense of openness. #F5F5FF also works for a warmer off-white.

text

A dark charcoal like #333333 or deep black for optimal contrast and readability against these very light tones.

Accessibility notes

  • Almost all colors in this palette are very light; ensure text has sufficient contrast with a dark color, not another light shade.
  • Avoid using any palette color for text on another palette color background, as contrast will likely be insufficient.
  • Text set in pure black or a very dark grey on #FFFFFF, #F5F5FF, or #E6E6F5 will meet most WCAG AA requirements.
  • Use these light colors primarily for backgrounds, illustrations, or very large, decorative text if not paired with strong contrast.

Recommended combinations

Ethereal Base
