About this color

Abbey sits at 185° on the color wheel with 7% saturation and 30% lightness, placing it in the cyan 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, Abbey is rendered as rgb(71, 81, 82), where the blue channel is highest at 82, 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, Abbey translates to a CMYK breakdown of 13C 1M 0Y 68K. A substantial black component (68%) anchors this color in print. The remaining ink channels supplement rather than drive the hue, which keeps the result stable across different paper stocks.
