Pastel Rainbow Color Palette reads the arc from its cool edge toward warmth. Periwinkle opens with the shortest visual distance, aqua clears the air, and mint carries the sequence toward a pale yellow center before peach and coral complete the turn.
A rainbow is not paint suspended in the sky. NOAA explains that sunlight bends as it enters a water droplet, reflects from the inside, and bends again as it exits, separating the light into its component wavelengths. The observer's position is part of the phenomenon.
The real spectrum is continuous, not six fixed blocks. This palette compresses that flow into a practical cool-to-warm sequence: use periwinkle and aqua for distance, mint and yellow as the optical bridge, then peach and coral for the part of a layout that should feel nearer.
