#d7e9de is a pale, airy green with strong grey undertones. It functions best as a soft background, keeping interfaces clean without the starkness of pure white. Pair it with charcoal typography to maintain high contrast and readability. Because it is so light, it can appear washed out against bright whites, so use it carefully in minimalist layouts where you need a subtle, natural foundation.
