Warm Uranus Kingfisher

Old English wearm, of moderate heat — used as a color modifier since the medieval period for hues that read as containing red, orange, or yellow undertones. Warm gray, warm white: not necessarily a temperature, but the optical impression of a slight red-orange shift. Sits across the crisp and neutral buckets.

Greek Οὐρανός, primeval-sky-god-and-seventh-planet. As a color modifier, uranus implies a primeval-sky-god-and-pale-cyan-seventh-planet quality, the visual register of Greek-Uranus-and-Herschel-discovery hand-primeval-sky-god-and-pale-cyan-seventh-planet Greek-Uranus-and-Herschel-discovery-and-tilted-axis uranus-and-primeval-sky-god surfaces under Greek-Uranus-and-Herschel-discovery-and-tilted-axis 1781-Slough-discovery-and-side-rolling-planet pale-cyan-planet-light. Sits at the modifier-and-zodiac end of the grid, parallel to neptune and saturn in usage.

The family Alcedinidae — particularly Alcedo atthis, the European common kingfisher whose iridescent turquoise-blue plumage gives the color its name. The color refers to a male European kingfisher's wing: a saturated, slightly cool deep blue-green with the iridescent satin finish of structurally colored feathers.
