About this color
Livid Brown sits at 333° on the color wheel with 28% saturation and 19% lightness, placing it in the magenta-red segment of the spectrum. Its restrained 28% saturation keeps the hue subtle — present but not assertive, making it easy to layer over or under more expressive colors. The lower lightness gives it weight and depth, lending gravity to any palette it enters.
In digital environments, Livid Brown is rendered as rgb(62, 35, 47), where the red channel dominates at 62, 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, Livid Brown translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 44M 24Y 76K. A substantial black component (76%) anchors this color in print. The remaining ink channels supplement rather than drive the hue, which keeps the result stable across different paper stocks.
