#aec9eb - Tropical Blue color

This is a pale, airy sky blue with a soft, cool undertone and a hint of gray that mutes its vibrancy. It feels like a gentle spring morning or a watercolor wash, evoking calm, clarity, and trust. Subtle and soothing, it suits backgrounds, nurseries, spas, and minimalist interfaces. Pairs beautifully with navy for contrast, warm beige or coral for warmth, and muted greens for a fresh, coastal-inspired palette.
