Color Lab

How #57EABE actually behaves in design work — read from its OKLCH lightness, chroma and hue, not just its raw numbers. Ten signals to help you decide where this color earns its place.

Warmth 29/100
Cool
Reads cool and recessive — calming, technical, good for trust-led UI.
Softness 62/100
High
Middle-weight — neither delicate nor heavy.
Depth 16/100
Very low
Airy and open — recedes, leaves the composition light.
Naturalness 53/100
Moderate
Loosely natural — an earthy edge without being rustic.
Vintage feel 28/100
Low
A faint retro warmth without tipping into sepia.
Luxury 21/100
Low
Playful and accessible rather than exclusive.
Brand distinctiveness 54/100
Moderate
Recognisable but shares space with nearby hues.
UI accent fit 18/100
Very low
Weak as an action color — too pale, too dark or too muted to signal.
Surface fit 43/100
Moderate
Usable as a tinted surface in measured doses.
Print safety 73/100
High
Reproduces faithfully in CMYK — safe for packaging and print.
