Launderette Blue

Self-service laundry

A self-service laundry or coin laundry is a facility where clothes and some household textiles are washed and dried by the customer. They are also known as launderettes in the United Kingdom and as the genericized trademark laundromats in the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. In Texas and other parts of the south central United States, the term washateria is still used by some older speakers. The first laundromat opened on April 18, 1934, in Fort Worth, Texas.

Blue

Blue is one of the three primary colours in the RGB (additive) colour model, as well as in the RYB colour model. It lies between violet and cyan on the spectrum of visible light. The term blue generally describes colours perceived by humans observing light with a dominant wavelength between approximately 450 and 495 nanometres. The clear daytime sky and the deep sea appear blue because of an optical effect known as Rayleigh scattering. An optical effect called the Tyndall effect explains blue eyes. Distant objects appear more blue because of another optical effect called aerial perspective.
