#042742 sits at 206° on the color wheel, placing it in the azure family of the cool half of the spectrum. With 89% saturation and 14% lightness, it reads as a fully saturated, deep tone — a weighted, dramatic presence with deep undertones. Its RGB mix of 4, 39, 66 produces a 15.28:1 contrast ratio against white, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #042742 is a distant relative of CSS navy — about 73 units away from #000080. Designers reach for azure hues at this saturation when the brief calls for bold, immediate signal, and at this lightness when they want weight, depth, and grounded contrast. On screen the cool cast tends to pair best with warm neutrals in the 25°-45° range to add life.
