Basic Information

  • Brights 2010 to 2018
  • Bold Brights 1997 to 2010

Tempting Turquoise is a medium-light, rich aqua-blue with a fresh, airy feel. It suggests turquoise jewelry, southwestern themes and ocean water, while still reading as a flexible color rather than a single literal object. The shade has enough personality to stand on its own, but it can also support nearby colors when used with related tones, crisp neutrals or deeper accents. Depending on the surrounding palette, it can read as sea glass, pool blue, aqua or turquoise, which gives it useful range for seasonal, natural, floral and themed designs.

Color Theory

Tempting Turquoise is a rich blue with a subtle clear blue influence. It sits near the blue area, giving it a cool presence that can either support nearby colors or become a clear focal accent depending on contrast. Its hue of around 196° gives it its clear blue character, its saturation of about 47% makes it feel rich rather than flat, and its value of about 82% gives it a medium-light, usable weight.
