About this color

Dune sits at 20° on the color wheel with 6% saturation and 20% lightness, placing it in the orange-red segment of the spectrum. At near-zero saturation, it reads as a pure gray, with hue playing almost no role in its character. The lower lightness gives it weight and depth, lending gravity to any palette it enters.

In digital environments, Dune is rendered as rgb(54, 50, 48), where the red channel dominates at 54, though the other channels keep the hue balanced. 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, Dune translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 7M 11Y 79K. A substantial black component (79%) anchors this color in print. The remaining ink channels supplement rather than drive the hue, which keeps the result stable across different paper stocks. No brands in the brandkit.pro library currently specify this exact hex as a named brand color.
