Warmth 60/100

Neutral

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

Softness 79/100

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

Depth 11/100

Very low

Airy and open — recedes, leaves the composition light.

Calm enough for large fills — backgrounds, cards, sections.

Very high

Reproduces faithfully in CMYK — safe for packaging and print.
