Not a soft seafoam, #1bd7bb is a vivid, neon-leaning teal that glows with cool energy. Its high saturation suits accent duty, best spent on buttons and highlights against deep navy or charcoal rather than white, where it can wash out. It turns cold next to what colors make gray, so warm it up with coral. Black text reads clearly on top at about 11.5:1 contrast.
