Calm
Say it in a prompt
Keep it calm: muted accent color, medium-weight headings, soft gray secondary text and no bright highlights. Where it shows up
- Reading apps and note-taking tools that use muted colors and medium-weight text so nothing competes with the content.
You might describe it as
- quiet colors that don't shout
- soft and relaxing look
- nothing grabs attention too much
Not to be confused with
- Bold
Calm keeps contrast low; bold makes things big, heavy and bright.
