No two colors here reach 4.5:1 for body text. Set text in white or black instead — each swatch's HEX is drawn in whichever reads better.
Gallery and museum spaces don't use a single white — they use a family of whites calibrated to the art within. This palette explores the subtle differences between warm white, cool white, and true white, with near-white surface variants used as elevation levels.
Three adjacent galleries. One hangs warm canvases on warm white. One hangs photography on cool white. One hangs sculpture on true neutral. They only work in their rooms.
A refined study of gallery whites and near-whites — warm, cool, and true-neutral — used in art and museum spaces.
Each swatch links back to its individual archive detail page.
