#2A17B9 sits at 247° on the color wheel, placing it in the blue family of the cool half of the spectrum. With 78% saturation and 41% lightness, it reads as a richly saturated, shadowed tone — a balanced mid-energy presence that sits comfortably alongside other UI tones. Its RGB mix of 42, 23, 185 produces a 10.93:1 contrast ratio against white, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #2A17B9 is a distant relative of CSS indigo — about 68 units away from #4B0082. Designers reach for blue hues at this saturation when the brief calls for bold, immediate signal, and at this lightness when they want a present, comfortable mid-canvas voice. On screen the cool cast tends to pair best with warm neutrals in the 25°-45° range to add life.
