Why it works and how to use it
It works because the lightness range is wide (51% to 97%), which gives clear hierarchy between background, content and accents. Try it for websites, presentations and branding.
- Background: Frost (#F0F3FF) is the lightest color, so it belongs on large surfaces.
- Text: Slate (#77838E) on #F0F3FF gives 3.5:1, enough for large headings only.
- Primary: Pewter (#9F91B2) is the most saturated mid-tone; use it for buttons and links with a border or a darker shade for contrast.
- Accent: Mushroom (#B3ADB1) for highlights, badges and hover states.
No pair inside the palette reaches 4.5:1, so add black or white for body text.
