Calamine BLue
#78cdd0
This is a light, cool turquoise, the color of a swimming pool seen from above, bright without being harsh. Calamine itself is a historical name for zinc ores. Laelia Pink softens the color into a dusty, vintage pastel pairing, Pyrite Yellow gives it a brassy warmth, and Grayish Lavender - A makes a cool, dreamy duo. At roughly 1.8:1 against white it cannot hold text on a white page, though black type on it is very clear. Good uses include tiled bathrooms, summer swimwear prints and soft web backgrounds.
