Far from a muted navy, this blue is loud and saturated, closer to azure than denim. The hex code #2383f1 works best as an accent or call to action rather than a full background, since large fields can overpower a layout. Black text passes WCAG AA on it at about 5.6:1, so it holds up behind body copy. Pair it with charcoal or warm sand to keep the energy in check.
