Suggested color roles

primary

Use #CBE7D7 as a gentle primary color for subtle headings or background accents.

secondary

Apply #DDE6E7 for supporting areas, secondary information, or layered effects.

accent

Utilize #C6E0F1 or #E8D7F3 sparingly for a touch of cool or warm variation in the pastel scheme.

background

Employ #F0E8E7 as the main clean, airy background, providing maximum lightness and space.

text

Opt for a dark grey or charcoal (e.g., #4A4A4A) for all text to ensure readability on these very light colors.

Accessibility notes

  • All colors are extremely light; dark text (e.g., charcoal or black) is crucial for readability.
  • Avoid using any of these pastel colors for text on another pastel background; contrast will be insufficient.
  • When layering elements, ensure significant luminance contrast between foreground and background elements.
  • These colors are best for backgrounds, large decorative shapes, or very large, bold text with strong contrast.
