Spring layouts and baby product packaging are where this pale lime earns its keep. #bcdbaa is a faded green with a soft yellow undertone, light enough to read as airy instead of bold. It works best as a dominant background under dark text, where it clears contrast at about 13.9:1. Pair it with charcoal or warm wood tones rather than white, which tends to wash it out.
