Blue
#006eb8
Simply named Blue, this is a strong, true medium blue, saturated and clear, like a ballpoint pen line or an enamel street sign. It pairs with Cream Yellow and Yellow for crisp primary-color energy, and with Carmine Red for a confident red-and-blue scheme that recalls flags and team colors. At about 5.4:1 on white it carries body text well, though on black it is too dark for small type. It is a sturdy choice for school uniforms, packaging that needs to read at a distance and printed maps.
