About this color
Creole sits at 19° on the color wheel with 100% saturation and 6% lightness, placing it in the red segment of the spectrum. With saturation at 100%, 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, Creole is rendered as rgb(31, 10, 0), where the red channel dominates at 31, though the other channels keep the hue balanced. High saturation combined with low lightness creates deep, jewel-toned results — useful for premium UI elements, hover states, and focused interaction areas.
For print, Creole translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 68M 100Y 88K. The dominant black channel (88%) 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. No brands in the brandkit.pro library currently specify this exact hex as a named brand color.
