#4e7496 - Hammerhead Shark color

A cool, mid-tone slate-blue with muted teal undertones, this color reads as a sophisticated denim or storm-tossed sea. It balances depth and softness—neither too dark nor pastel—making it versatile for interiors, textiles, and branding. The slightly grayed quality tempers brightness, lending calm, contemplative energy and modern subtlety. It pairs beautifully with warm ochres or soft creams for contrast, or with charcoal and pale greens for a cohesive, serene palette.
