About this color

Driftwood sits at 35° on the color wheel with 41% saturation and 42% lightness, placing it in the orange-red segment of the spectrum. The moderate 41% saturation gives it enough color presence to register clearly without competing for dominance in a composition. 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, Driftwood is rendered as rgb(151, 115, 63), where the red channel dominates at 151, giving the color a clear red cast. This warm mid-tone carries enough energy to serve as an accent without the intensity of a highly saturated warm color.

For print, Driftwood translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 24M 58Y 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. In brand applications, this exact value is specified as LV Brown.
