Juggernaut
Also known as: Wakefield , Deep Dive , Regatta Bay , Navy Teal
Quietly crisp and refreshing, Juggernaut is a cool-toned cyan that earns its keep in water themes and healthcare apps. Its complement lands in brown territory, which makes for striking two-color pairings. It's dark enough to use for text on white backgrounds (8.36:1, passes WCAG AA).
