Infinity
Also known as: Sky Captain, Black Grey, Deep Space Echo, Abyssal Anchorfish Blue
Infinity brings a calm and trustworthy feel to any palette. This deep blue is a natural fit for finance apps and trust-driven interfaces. A brown counterpart from the complementary harmony gives it the most tension. It's dark enough to use for text on white backgrounds (14.83:1, passes WCAG AA).

Where Infinity works
- Web & UI: Use it directly for text on light surfaces; it clears AA contrast without adjustment.
- Interiors: Use it where you want the eye to land — front door, built-ins, or one bold wall.
- Fashion: Works as a base layer or outerwear tone that lets brighter pieces do the talking.
- Branding: The safest brand-primary family there is; differentiate with an unexpected accent.
- Web & UI: Use it decoratively — dividers, chart series, illustration accents — and let neutrals carry the type.
- Fashion: One garment in this color carries an outfit; two starts to compete.
