Party Ice
Also known as: Wan White , Wild Sand , Puffy Pillow , Felicity
There is a cheerful and optimistic quality to Party Ice. The muted, warm yellow at #E6E4DE rewards summer palettes and highlights and warnings. Match it with blue accents when the design calls for energy over calm. For accessible text, use it on black or near-black backgrounds (16.52:1, passes WCAG AA) rather than white.

Where Party Ice works
- Web & UI: A natural surface tint: use it for cards, section backgrounds, or hover states instead of flat white.
- Interiors: A softer alternative to builder's white for walls, trim, or ceilings. It turns warmer under evening light.
- Fashion: A wardrobe neutral: it anchors outfits and pairs with nearly any accent color.
- Branding: A secondary brand color by nature: it supports a stronger primary and shines in illustration.
- Web & UI: A supporting-cast color for UI: chart fills, tags, and empty-state illustrations, but not text.
- Interiors: Soft and low-saturation: a candidate for full walls, where vivid colors overwhelm.
