Periwinkle

#DAE0FC

A light, muted periwinkle — sophisticated balance of hue and saturation that conveys composure and subtle refinement, well-suited to modern, minimalist design.

Psychology

White feels spacious, clean, and uncluttered — but never quite empty. It's the color of clarity, simplicity, and new beginnings.

Meaning

Purity, peace, and minimalism in Western design; mourning and reverence in parts of East Asia.

Applications

The default canvas for most apps, editorial layouts, and packaging. Use a slightly off-white instead of pure #FFFFFF to reduce eye strain.
