About this color
Oyster Bay sits at 186° on the color wheel with 61% saturation and 90% lightness, placing it in the cyan segment of the spectrum. At 61% saturation, the hue is fully legible and confident — richly chromatic without tipping into high-contrast territory. The elevated lightness keeps it airy and open, well-suited to large surface areas without visual weight.
In digital environments, Oyster Bay is rendered as rgb(214, 242, 245), where the blue channel is highest at 245, though it sits close to the other channels. High saturation at this lightness produces strong contrast against white — effective for CTAs, badges, and elements that need to stop the eye.
For print, Oyster Bay translates to a CMYK breakdown of 13C 1M 0Y 4K. With almost no black ink (4%), this color is built almost entirely from process inks: 13% cyan. This profile tends toward vibrancy in print, though ink density limits on press may affect saturation on coated versus uncoated stock.
