Deep Slate Green

#112f2c

Deep Slate Green is a very dark blue-green, close to the color of a forest pond in the shade. It reads as almost black until set beside lighter partners. Naples Yellow gives it a creamy, gentle lift, Seashell Pink makes a soft and slightly romantic pairing, and Pomegranite Purple adds a rich berry note. With about 14.3:1 on white it handles text of any size, and it works well as a dark background for light type. Try it on kitchen cabinets, boot-room walls or the cover of a botanical journal.
