Hex color #b0fff2 graphic
Reach for #b0fff2 when a layout needs a soft wash of color behind dark text. This pastel teal is very light and low in saturation, so it calms a page without turning gray. Black type hits about 18.4:1 contrast on it, which clears WCAG AA with room to spare. Its one weak spot: next to plain white it can look washed out, so pair it with charcoal or deep teal instead.
