CSS color

Overview

Navy is blue reduced to half its brightness — rgb(0, 0, 128), hex #000080 — keeping the 240-degree hue and full saturation of the blue primary while darkening it to a deep, sober tone. It is one of the sixteen basic HTML colors and functions as the shadow value of the blue keyword. Named for the traditional dark uniforms of naval services, navy reads as formal and stable, which makes it a durable choice for backgrounds, headers, and text where pure blue would feel too bright. Against white it delivers a high, comfortable contrast ratio, and it pairs naturally with its warm complements in the orange range.

Navy (#000080) is a deep, near-black blue named after the dark blue uniforms of naval officers worldwide, which adopted the color for its practicality and authority at sea. As one of the original CSS named colors, it is among the most widely used design hues, conveying trust, stability, and professionalism across corporate branding, finance, and fashion. Its near-black depth makes it a strong pairing with white or gold in formal contexts.
