About this color

Hemp sits at 14° on the color wheel with 12% saturation and 50% lightness, placing it in the red segment of the spectrum. Its restrained 12% saturation keeps the hue subtle — present but not assertive, making it easy to layer over or under more expressive colors.

In digital environments, Hemp is rendered as rgb(143, 119, 112), where the red channel dominates at 143, though the other channels keep the hue balanced. This muted, medium-toned character adapts well to supporting roles: borders, disabled states, secondary text, and structural UI elements.

For print, Hemp translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 17M 22Y 44K. With a moderate key (44%), 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.
