Using this color

Where #c5dedf works

#C5DEDF (#c5dedf) sits in the cyan family at about 182° hue, 29% saturation, and 82% lightness. Contrast is 1.41:1 on white and 14.89:1 on black, so near-black labels read more clearly on the swatch itself. Nearest Tailwind token: cyan-100 (approximation unless the hex is an official scale stop).

Sensible jobs for this swatch

subtle surfaces, chips, and table stripes
text or icons on charcoal / dark mode

Do not use #c5dedf as small body text on white — 1.41:1 misses WCAG AA (4.5:1). Pair it with a darker shade from the scale below, or check pairs in the contrast checker.

Family context: Freshness, clarity, and innovation. Great for tech accents and clean digital products. Common uses still include buttons, charts, and accents in the Cyan range — always verify the pair for this exact hex in the contrast checker.
