Warmth 56/100

Neutral

Balanced temperature — flexible, sits between warm and cool schemes.

Soft and easy on the eye — gentle backdrops, calm surfaces.

Depth 12/100

Very low

Airy and open — recedes, leaves the composition light.

A faint retro warmth without tipping into sepia.

Very low

Playful and accessible rather than exclusive.

Weak as an action color — too pale, too dark or too muted to signal.

Reproduces faithfully in CMYK — safe for packaging and print.
