Pastel Pink is the single accent in this high-contrast editorial system — set on near-white paper against near-black ink, with a warm grey and a desaturated tint of Pastel Pink carrying the quiet middle.
Pastel Pink sits between cream and a deep berry here, softened by a blush accent and grounded by charcoal.
