Where Steam works

• Web & UI: Too light for text, ideal as a background wash that keeps a page from feeling sterile.
• Interiors: Wall-to-wall safe: it behaves like a white with personality, especially in north-facing rooms.
• Fashion: Works as a base layer or outerwear tone that lets brighter pieces do the talking.
• Branding: As a brand anchor it reads established and tactile; pair with a single vivid accent for energy.
• Web & UI: Use it decoratively — dividers, chart series, illustration accents — and let neutrals carry the type.
• Interiors: Muted enough to paint all four walls; sample it in both daylight and evening light before committing.
