Why it works and how to use it
It works because the lightness range is wide (47% to 95%), which gives clear hierarchy between background, content and accents. Try it for social media templates and gentle interfaces.
- Background: Frost (#E8F3FF) is the lightest color, so it belongs on large surfaces.
- Text: Gray (#767A7C) on #E8F3FF gives 3.86:1, enough for large headings only.
- Primary: Fog (#C3D2E1) is the most saturated mid-tone; use it for buttons and links with a border or a darker shade for contrast.
- Accent: Dusty Blue (#9DA5AE) for highlights, badges and hover states.
No pair inside the palette reaches 4.5:1, so add black or white for body text.
