About this color

Bastille sits at 295° on the color wheel with 21% saturation and 11% lightness, placing it in the violet-magenta segment of the spectrum. Its restrained 21% saturation keeps the hue subtle — present but not assertive, making it easy to layer over or under more expressive colors. Near-black lightness makes it read as a deep, absorptive tone — color is implied more than seen.

In digital environments, Bastille is rendered as rgb(33, 22, 34), where the blue channel is highest at 34, though it sits close to the other channels. Low saturation at this depth produces the kind of sophisticated, near-neutral dark that works for application shells, sidebars, and dark-mode base layers.

For print, Bastille translates to a CMYK breakdown of 3C 35M 0Y 87K. The dominant black channel (87%) 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.
