About this color

San Juan sits at 220° on the color wheel with 27% saturation and 30% lightness, placing it in the blue segment of the spectrum. Its restrained 27% saturation keeps the hue subtle — present but not assertive, making it easy to layer over or under more expressive colors. The lower lightness gives it weight and depth, lending gravity to any palette it enters.

In digital environments, San Juan is rendered as rgb(56, 70, 97), where the blue channel is highest at 97, anchoring the color in the cool register. Low saturation at this depth produces the kind of sophisticated, near-neutral dark that works for application shells, sidebars, and dark-mode base layers.

For print, San Juan translates to a CMYK breakdown of 42C 28M 0Y 62K. A substantial black component (62%) anchors this color in print. The remaining ink channels supplement rather than drive the hue, which keeps the result stable across different paper stocks.
