#896F8B

The hexcode #896F8B is a lighter and less saturated variant of the shade "French Lilac". By itself, it is commonly associated with mess (96.4% match), obedient (95.8% match), and grandiose (95.4% match). When French Lilac is combined with Dark Purple, it relates to the terms charcoal and gloom. When joined with Black, it becomes more related to the term valid. When French Lilac is added to Rich Black, it shares association with the terms paranoid and orthodox. When paired with its complementary color #718B6F, a lighter, warmer, and more saturated variant of the shade "Russian Green", it shares connection with the terms sober or complexity. However, when we analyze the color next to its other triadic colors, #8A886F (a shade of "Artichoke") and #6F8A88 (a shade of "Aurometalsaurus"), the resulting palette becomes softer and warmer than the complementary color palette and changes from the color index category of "casual" to the "natural" category. Specifically, the new triad is most suggestive of uncertain and muted.
