Solid Ivory background details
With hex #FFFFF0 (rgb(255, 255, 240)), this airy, high-key yellow tone sits around 60° on the color wheel. Its bold, saturated appearance reads as energetic and optimistic on screen. Use the values and preview above to test it in the layout where it will actually appear.
Ivory, the White That Keeps Its Warmth
On screen, ivory does something plain white cannot: it softens glare without looking dirty. At #FFFFF0, it is white with the blue channel pulled back just slightly, which reads as candlelight rather than fluorescent tube. As a document background or e-reader tint, that small warmth takes the clinical edge off a bright display, especially during late-night reading sessions.
One of the original X11 and CSS named colors, ivory has been available to web designers since the earliest browsers. It works hardest as a background for dark, warm foregrounds — espresso text feels far more natural on ivory than jet black on pure white. Keep cool-toned photographs off it, though; against ivory, a bluish image can look faintly gray and underexposed.
