#4c5079 - Provocative color

Deep, muted indigo-blue with cool slate undertones, this color reads like a dusk sky reflected on polished stone. It feels calm, composed, and slightly moody—sophisticated rather than stark—making it ideal for professional branding, interfaces, or backgrounds that require subdued elegance. Subtle purple notes add depth without overt warmth, so it pairs beautifully with warm metallics or soft creams for contrast. It offers solid contrast for light text and evokes stability, introspection, and refined seriousness.
