Engulfed in Light

Engulfed in Light sits at that sweetspot where warmth and restraint actually balance. It's lighter than Cotton Field, with enough yellow breathing room that it doesn't read as pure gray, but it's not trying to seduce you either. The kind of background that works because you forget you're looking at it.

You'll land here for editorial and publishing layouts where readability matters, SaaS dashboards that need approachability without the fussiness, and e-commerce sites that want clean without cold. It pairs well with dark type and doesn't compete with photography. Unlike Au Clair de la Lune, which threads its own needle between cream and paper, this one leans slightly more luminous, it's got presence without presence, if that makes sense.

The real difference: it's more forgiving across devices than Flickering Firefly while staying warmer than Cotton Field's austere neutrality. Test it alongside your actual content before committing. The lightness can read differently depending on what surrounds it, but that's also why it works so well as a flexible canvas.
