Light blues are universally associated with clear skies, serenity, and trustworthiness. They lower blood pressure and heart rate, making them the most psychologically calming chromatic colors. Baby blue in particular symbolizes gentleness, innocence, and reliable safety.

Soft blues are the most widely used background color in enterprise software, social media, and healthcare apps.
