General Information about #0B0ECB

#0B0ECB is a dark shade of blue. It is composed of 4.3% red, 5.5% green, and 80% blue. In the RGB color model, this means that blue is the dominant color, while red and green are present in very small amounts. When converted to CMYK, the color is composed of 94.6% cyan, 93.1% magenta, 0% yellow, and 20% black. This indicates that the color requires a large amount of cyan and magenta to be produced in print, with no yellow needed and a significant amount of black added to create its dark tone. Its dark tone gives the color an elegant, and modern appearance. Depending on the context the color can also create a unique and artistic impression.

The hex color #0B0ECB, a deep shade of dark blue, presents some accessibility challenges. Its low luminance value of 14 means that it requires careful consideration when used as a background or text color. According to WCAG guidelines, a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for normal text and 3:1 for large text against a background. #0B0ECB falls short of these requirements when paired with standard white (#FFFFFF). To ensure readability and usability for individuals with visual impairments, it is best to avoid using this color for body text. If you must use this color, be sure to use it with very light colors such as white or yellow to ensure that the contrast ration is high enough.
