About this color

Java sits at 179° on the color wheel with 85% saturation and 40% lightness, placing it in the cyan segment of the spectrum.

In digital environments, Java is rendered as rgb(15, 189, 186), where the green channel leads at 189, with red and blue channels close behind. The mid-range lightness and strong saturation make this versatile for both foreground and background roles, depending on what it is paired against.

With a moderate key (26%), this color uses black to deepen the chromatic channels rather than replace them, a profile that typically holds up well in both offset and digital print.
