#052121 sits at 180° on the color wheel, placing it in the cyan family of the cool half of the spectrum. With 74% saturation and 7% lightness, it reads as a richly saturated, near-black tone — a weighted, dramatic presence with deep undertones. Its RGB mix of 5, 33, 33 produces a 16.85:1 contrast ratio against white, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #052121 is a clear variant of CSS black — about 47 units away from #000000. Designers reach for cyan 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.
