A bright light-blue facade color and one of the subtractive primary colors, represented by hex triplet 00FFFF.
Cyan is a bright light-blue. Along with yellow and magenta, it is one of the three subtractive primary colors. On facades it is most common as a paint color, but is occasionally used for bricks, tiles, or aluminum.
Hex triplet: 00FFFF
Cyan is brighter than the slightly duller baby blue. The shade can occur in several facade materials. The hex triplet is a comparison sample for a range of similar facade colors, rather than an exact-match requirement.
