About this color

Cape Palliser sits at 28° on the color wheel with 50% saturation and 40% lightness, placing it in the orange-red segment of the spectrum.

In digital environments, Cape Palliser is rendered as rgb(153, 99, 51), where the red channel dominates at 153, 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, Cape Palliser translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 35M 67Y 40K. With a moderate key (40%), 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.
