A very light grey with a faint cool undertone, #dcdde2 reads softer than plain white yet barely registers as color. That delicacy suits minimal UI backgrounds and airy layouts, though it can wash out beside pure white. Pair it with deep navy or near-black text, which reaches about 15.5:1 contrast here, so small type stays readable.
