Under warm 2700K interior light Stellar shifts subtly: leans toward purple; in north-facing or shaded light it shifts subtly: leans toward purple. Overall drift across common illuminants is small (max ΔE ≈ 1.4), so it is a lighting-stable choice.

Against white it measures 6.2:1 and against black 3.38:1, so white text is the stronger pairing. That pairing passes WCAG AA for body text.
One color explored: close hues with real lightness and chroma structure, so the palette is the anchor through value rather than a set of colors.
#9fb8ce · #7792aa · #46647e · #2f4a62 · #112a3e · #000c1c
The anchor's neighbours on the wheel — everything shares an undertone, so the chord carries color without anything having to be muted to get along.
#588d99 · #457991 · #46647e · #3a5076 · #383c61 · #322a4b
The mid-gap pairing — sage and mustard, terracotta and olive. A foil rotated 40–65° toward warm or cool: too far to be kin, too near to argue, carried by temperature and a deliberate value offset.
#bdb6d3 · #a092c5 · #807991 · #46647e · #264865 · #0d2e47
One deliberately opposed voice — a single restrained counterpoint across the wheel, or temperature against temperature where the anchor is too muted to carry a loud opposite.
#d8ad83 · #76828d · #46647e · #304557 · #162838 · #040e18
The anchor as the only color in the room. True neutrals or complement-warmed near-neutrals let it stay dominant.
#f7f1eb · #adb6bd · #7e7a75 · #46647e · #404951 · #020100
This color as a ground rather than a subject — its own restraint held across a narrow value band, carrying one saturated voice from the opposite temperature.
#e7f4ff · #bfcddb · #46647e · #1a2f41 · #000d1e · #f3a147
The opposite hue on the perceptual wheel, tempered to field strength — warm/cool tension without vibration.
#d6dbb6 · #cb9860 · #7e79a0 · #46647e · #5c3936 · #0e0b29
The complement's two neighbours instead of the complement itself — strong contrast with a lower clash risk.
#fdefe2 · #d7a79b · #887a45 · #46647e · #663b30 · #080400
Three hues spaced evenly around the wheel; the anchor leads and the other two are held at supporting strength.
#ffecf0 · #d7a5af · #708351 · #46647e · #404e26 · #050001
Two complementary pairs offset by 90° — the richest chord, kept usable by a strict lightness hierarchy.

Its moderate chroma lets it work in mid-size areas — upholstery, secondary UI surfaces, editorial blocks — without overwhelming neighbors. In palettes it pairs most predictably with its tonal ramp and analogous neighbors; reserve the complementary hue for small, deliberate contrast.
