#284054 Hex Color
Online color picker to view shades, tints, color codes, and complementary colors
A faded navy, like deep water under an overcast sky. #284054 is dark and very unsaturated, which makes it a steady 60% base rather than a statement color. It suits finance, tech, and healthcare branding, and it looks richer next to burgundy than the usual camel. White text on it reaches about 10.8:1 contrast, so small body text passes WCAG AA with room to spare.
