About this color
Blue Bayoux sits at 213° on the color wheel with 22% saturation and 40% lightness, placing it in the blue segment of the spectrum. Its restrained 22% saturation keeps the hue subtle — present but not assertive, making it easy to layer over or under more expressive colors. Its mid-range lightness positions it as a mid-tone: neither a background color nor a deep accent, but something in between.
In digital environments, Blue Bayoux is rendered as rgb(80, 100, 124), where the blue channel is highest at 124, though it sits close to the other channels. This muted, medium-toned character adapts well to supporting roles: borders, disabled states, secondary text, and structural UI elements.
For print, Blue Bayoux translates to a CMYK breakdown of 35C 19M 0Y 51K. A substantial black component (51%) anchors this color in print.
