Psychology

Dark cyans feel aquatic and technical — deep ocean, industrial machinery, precision instruments.

History

Cerulean, a blue-green pigment introduced in the nineteenth century, became important to Impressionist painters for capturing sky and water with unprecedented freshness.

Colour pairings
