Clay is essentially a blue's complement drained of chroma, so pairing it with a vivid blue gives you complementary tension without the vibration you would get from a full-strength orange. The bone white lifts the whole thing and keeps the clay from reading as dirt. Straight from the WGSN and Coloro S/S 27 Key Colours, where Luminous Blue was released alongside Clay as the grounding earth tone.
