Tucked Onando

#57607f
Notes

Tucked Onando (#57607F) is a true blue 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 (227°, 19%, 42%) places it in the muted 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 amber. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Tucked
adjective

Old English tūcian, to torment / pull — past-participle of tuck. As a color modifier, tucked implies a clear-and-fitted-and-arranged quality where the hue carries the visual register of carefully-tucked-and-neatly-fitted shirt-into-trouser dress-attire. Sits at the crisp-and-finished end of the grid, parallel to trim and pressed in usage.

Onando
noun

Japanese onando-iro (御納戸色) — honored storehouse color, the saturated grayed-blue of pre-modern Japanese clothing storehouse interiors. Traditional Edo-period onando was used in samurai household interiors and the linings of formal court dress. The color refers to a onando-painted Edo storehouse wall: a saturated, slightly cool deep blue-gray with the matte finish of weathered distemper paint.
