About this color
Deep Teal sits at 173° on the color wheel with 84% saturation and 10% lightness, placing it in the cyan segment of the spectrum. With saturation at 84%, this is a high-chroma color: the kind that anchors palettes and demands considered placement. Near-black lightness makes it read as a deep, absorptive tone — color is implied more than seen.
In digital environments, Deep Teal is rendered as rgb(4, 47, 42), where the green channel leads at 47, with red and blue channels close behind. High saturation combined with low lightness creates deep, jewel-toned results — useful for premium UI elements, hover states, and focused interaction areas.
For print, Deep Teal translates to a CMYK breakdown of 91C 0M 11Y 82K. The dominant black channel (82%) does most of the tonal work here — cyan, magenta, and yellow contribute minimally, so the printed result will be a deep, near-neutral tone that reads differently from its screen equivalent.
