About this color
Graphite sits at 21° on the color wheel with 45% saturation and 10% lightness, placing it in the orange-red segment of the spectrum. The moderate 45% saturation gives it enough color presence to register clearly without competing for dominance in a composition. Near-black lightness makes it read as a deep, absorptive tone — color is implied more than seen.
In digital environments, Graphite is rendered as rgb(37, 22, 14), where the red channel dominates at 37, though the other channels keep the hue balanced. This warm mid-tone carries enough energy to serve as an accent without the intensity of a highly saturated warm color.
For print, Graphite translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 41M 62Y 85K. The dominant black channel (85%) 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.
