#9596a4 - Too Big to Whale color

This is a cool, muted neutral sitting between soft gray and smoky lavender. It reads as a gentle, sophisticated slate with a faint mauve-blue undertone that softens its industrial edge. It works well as a calming background or accent in interiors, branding, and apparel, pairing elegantly with warm beige, dusty rose, deep navy, or crisp white. Its understated depth conveys modern refinement, subtle elegance, and quiet dusk-like atmosphere without drawing attention.
