About this color

Lynch sits at 220° on the color wheel with 18% saturation and 50% lightness, placing it in the blue segment of the spectrum. Its restrained 18% saturation keeps the hue subtle — present but not assertive, making it easy to layer over or under more expressive colors. Its mid-range lightness positions it as a mid-tone: neither a background color nor a deep accent, but something in between.

In digital environments, Lynch is rendered as rgb(105, 120, 150), where the blue channel is highest at 150, anchoring the color in the cool register. This muted, medium-toned character adapts well to supporting roles: borders, disabled states, secondary text, and structural UI elements.

For print, Lynch translates to a CMYK breakdown of 30C 20M 0Y 41K. With a moderate key (41%), this color uses black to deepen the chromatic channels rather than replace them, a profile that typically holds up well in both offset and digital print.
