This is a soft periwinkle-blue with lavender-gray undertones, appearing as a pale, airy pastel. It reads cool and calming, evoking early morning skies or a misty hydrangea bloom. The tone works well for tranquil interiors, nursery palettes, and understated branding, pairing elegantly with warm creams, muted blush, deep navy, or cool charcoal. It conveys softness, quiet sophistication, and a slightly nostalgic, serene mood—ideal where a gentle, refined presence is desired without overwhelming other colors.
