About this color

Plum sits at 309° on the color wheel with 46% saturation and 30% lightness, placing it in the violet-magenta segment of the spectrum. The moderate 46% saturation gives it enough color presence to register clearly without competing for dominance in a composition. The lower lightness gives it weight and depth, lending gravity to any palette it enters.

In digital environments, Plum is rendered as rgb(112, 41, 101), where the red channel dominates at 112, though the other channels keep the hue balanced. This warm mid-tone carries enough energy to serve as an accent without the intensity of a highly saturated warm color.

For print, Plum translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 63M 10Y 56K. A substantial black component (56%) anchors this color in print. The remaining ink channels supplement rather than drive the hue, which keeps the result stable across different paper stocks.
