About this color

In digital environments, Comet is rendered as rgb(88, 96, 116), where the blue channel is highest at 116, though it sits close to the other channels. This muted, medium-toned character adapts well to supporting roles: borders, disabled states, secondary text, and structural UI elements.

For print, Comet translates to a CMYK breakdown of 24C 17M 0Y 55K. A substantial black component (55%) anchors this color in print.
