Wisteria

Wisteria (#C9A0DC) is a soft violet with a cool character. It leans cool, sitting on the blue, green, and violet side of the wheel. Quiet and dependable, a fit for product UI and data visualization. Its HSL profile (281°, 46%, 75%) places it in the balanced band at a light lightness. It works as a background wash, large-area fill, or soft illustration tone. Add a darker ink of the same hue when you need type over it. For a confident two-color system, pair it with its complementary green. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel. The cascading lilac of a climbing vine that can outlive its support, strangle it, and keep going. The purple comes from the same anthocyanin family as grape skins.
