#D2DFD0

sRGB: 210 / 223 / 208

Thunderous oceans drift beyond memory
Electric visions transform the fabric of existence
Fierce revelations vanish without farewell

#D2DFD0 belongs to the green family. Its hex code tells a screen to mix 210 red, 223 green and 208 blue on a scale of 0 to 255. On the HSL wheel, hue is a position around a circle: 112.0° lands in the green region. Its 19.0% saturation makes it close to gray at this lightness. HSL lightness is 84.5% on a scale from black (0%) to white (100%). Of black and white lettering, black has the clearer light-to-dark separation on this background (15.21:1), which helps the shapes of letters stand out.

Text contrast

Contrast tells you how clearly lettering separates from #D2DFD0 in light and dark. The ratio compares relative luminance, a measure of light weighted for human vision. Identical colors give 1:1 and black against white gives 21:1. A ratio of 2.99:1 falls just below the 3:1 AA minimum for large text. Body text needs at least 4.5:1 because its finer strokes are harder to distinguish.

Black text: 15.21:1

Normal text: AAA
Large text: AAA

White text: 1.38:1

Normal text: Fail
Large text: Fail

AA and AAA are WCAG accessibility levels. AAA sets a higher bar: 7:1 for normal text and 4.5:1 for large text. Large text begins at 18 pt regular or 14 pt bold. Ratings use the unrounded ratio.

Palettes & scales

Harmonies rotate the hue. Scales mix the starting color with white, black or middle gray in 20% steps in encoded sRGB.

Complementary

#DDD0DF sits half a turn (180°) from #D2DFD0 on the HSL wheel. Keeping saturation and lightness steady while crossing to the opposite hue gives you a contrasting accent. Check text contrast separately before using the pair for lettering.

#D2DFD0 #DDD0DF

Analogous

#DADFD0 and #D0DFD6 sit 30° to either side of #D2DFD0. The three hues are neighbors on the wheel, so you can change the color of a border or highlight while keeping it close to the original.

#DADFD0 #D2DFD0 #D0DFD6

Triadic

#D2DFD0, #D0D2DF and #DFD0D2 are spaced 120° apart, forming a triangle on the wheel. Try one for the main color and the other two for accents.

#D2DFD0 #D0D2DF #DFD0D2

Split complementary

Start at #D2DFD0 and look across the wheel. #D5D0DF and #DFD0DA sit 30° to either side of its exact opposite, giving you two different accent choices.

#D2DFD0 #D5D0DF #DFD0DA

Square

Starting with #D2DFD0, each quarter turn (90°) takes you to the next hue: #D0DADF, #DDD0DF, then #DFD6D0. Across the square, #D2DFD0 pairs with #DDD0DF, and #D0DADF with #DFD6D0.

#D2DFD0 #D0DADF #DDD0DF #DFD6D0

Tetradic

#D2DFD0 and #DDD0DF are opposites, as are #D0DFDD and #DFD0D2. Together they form a rectangle on the wheel, with alternating gaps of 60° and 120°.

Color vision previews

Compare how #D2DFD0 appears in each simulation. When two chart lines or status indicators become hard to tell apart, a label, shape or line pattern gives readers another way to distinguish them. Individual perception varies.

Protanopia

A red–green color vision deficiency. Without a distinct response from long-wavelength cones, some reds and greens can look alike, and reds can appear darker.

Deuteranopia

A red–green color vision deficiency. Without a distinct response from medium-wavelength cones, some greens can be difficult to distinguish from reds or browns.

#DEDBD1

Tritanopia

A blue–yellow color vision deficiency. Without a distinct response from short-wavelength cones, blue can resemble green, and yellow can resemble pink.

#D1DEDB

Protanomaly (50%)

An altered long-wavelength cone response can make reds appear dimmer and harder to distinguish from greens. This swatch shows the model’s halfway setting.

#DBDDD0

Deuteranomaly (50%)

An altered medium-wavelength cone response can reduce the visible difference between reds and greens. This swatch shows the model’s halfway setting.
