About this color

Avocado sits at 61° on the color wheel with 25% saturation and 40% lightness, placing it in the orange-yellow segment of the spectrum. Its restrained 25% 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, Avocado is rendered as rgb(127, 128, 77), where the green channel leads at 128, with red and blue channels close behind. This muted, medium-toned character adapts well to supporting roles: borders, disabled states, secondary text, and structural UI elements.

For print, Avocado translates to a CMYK breakdown of 1C 0M 40Y 50K. With a moderate key (50%), 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.
