Easy Bahamas

#367c7f
Notes

Easy Bahamas (#367C7F) is a true cyan with an earthy character. It leans grounded and natural, the kind of color that plays well with wood, clay, linen, and warm neutrals. Its HSL profile (182°, 40%, 35%) places it in the balanced band at a mid lightness. It works across type, buttons, and borders, saturated enough to feel deliberate but balanced enough to not fight the rest of the palette. For a confident two-color system, pair it with its complementary red. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Easy
adjective

Old French aisié, comfortable, at rest — used as a color modifier since the eighteenth century for hues that read as visually undemanding. Easy beige, easy gray: moderate saturation combined with optical restfulness. Sits at the crisp-bucket center alongside calm and settled.

Bahamas
noun

The Atlantic archipelago — and the saturated turquoise of Bahamian Pink Sands Beach shallows at Harbour Island and the cyan-blue of Exuma Cays lagoon water. Bahamas color refers to a Bahamian shallow-water lagoon at midday: a saturated, slightly cool bright blue-green with the optical clarity of warm Caribbean water.
