Sensible jobs for this swatch

supporting UI accents
large titles on light backgrounds (WCAG AA Large)
text or icons on charcoal / dark mode

Do not use #778d84 as small body text on white — 3.54:1 misses WCAG AA (4.5:1). Pair it with a darker shade from the scale below, or check pairs in the contrast checker.

Low saturation makes this easy to overuse as a neutral. Keep one chromatic accent elsewhere so the interface does not go muddy.

Family context: Balance, healing, and sophistication. Popular in wellness and modern dashboards. Common uses still include buttons, charts, and accents in the Teal range — always verify the pair for this exact hex in the contrast checker.
