About this color
Horizon sits at 202° on the color wheel with 29% saturation and 50% lightness, placing it in the blue segment of the spectrum. Its restrained 29% 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, Horizon is rendered as rgb(91, 137, 164), where the blue channel is highest at 164, anchoring the color in the cool register. This muted, medium-toned character adapts well to supporting roles: borders, disabled states, secondary text, and structural UI elements.
For print, Horizon translates to a CMYK breakdown of 45C 16M 0Y 36K. With a moderate key (36%), this color uses black to deepen the chromatic channels rather than replace them, a profile that typically holds up well in both offset and digital print.
