A few field notes

How to use it

Cool gray-blue with a translucent, architectural feeling. Use the original swatches freely in artwork. The website preview is a separate adaptation with readable text and action colors; open the generator to keep every original swatch exactly.

A starting point for

Editorial layouts, identity systems, and restrained graphic work.

Give it structure

Start with #F6FBFD for the page and #121F23 for readable copy. Put secondary content on #E7F1F4. Use #686E6F for the main action, and keep #EAB7A5 as a supporting highlight.

A pairing to reconsider

Accent #EAB7A5 on background #F6FBFD has 1.70:1 contrast. It falls short of AA for normal text. Keep it as a fill with a contrasting label, or adjust it in the studio.

These roles are suggestions. Test every actual foreground/background pair, including hover, focus, and disabled states.
