#eff1e6 is a bleached, desaturated yellow that reads almost like a cool, tinted grey. Because it is so light, it functions best as a spacious background rather than a primary focus. Pair it with dark charcoal text to ensure high readability. This hex code works well in minimal, airy designs where plain white feels too harsh or clinical.
