Near Moon
Also known as: Blue Crystal Landscape, Turquoise Chalk, Hammam Blue, Bright Turquoise
Quietly cool and clear, Near Moon is a cool-toned cyan that earns its keep in water themes and healthcare apps. Match it with red accents when the design calls for energy over calm. For accessible text, use it on black or near-black backgrounds (13.97:1, passes WCAG AA) rather than white.

Where Near Moon works
- Web & UI: Reads as an interactive accent: fills, hovers, focus rings. Keep body text in a darker neutral.
- Interiors: Use it where you want the eye to land — front door, built-ins, or one bold wall.
- Fashion: One garment in this color carries an outfit; two starts to compete.
- 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.
- Branding: Best in a brand's supporting palette — packaging interiors, patterns, campaign accents.
