#C5E1E1 Hex Color

Use #c5e1e1 as a wide-field background color to soften an interface without losing professionalism. It acts as a soothing, modern alternative to pure white, maintaining a 15.2:1 contrast ratio when paired with dark text like charcoal or deep navy.

The extreme lightness and desaturation of #c5e1e1 allow dark text to pop against it effectively. Because it functions almost like a neutral grey, it avoids the visual fatigue of standard white backgrounds while still ensuring high readability for users.
