About this color

Avocado sits at 57° on the color wheel with 21% saturation and 50% lightness, placing it in the orange-yellow segment of the spectrum. Its restrained 21% saturation keeps the hue subtle — present but not assertive, making it easy to layer over or under more expressive colors.

In digital environments, Avocado is rendered as rgb(154, 151, 101), where the red channel dominates at 154, 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, Avocado translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 2M 34Y 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.
