About this color

Rouge sits at 329° on the color wheel with 52% saturation and 40% lightness, placing it in the magenta-red segment of the spectrum. The moderate 52% 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, Rouge is rendered as rgb(155, 49, 104), where the red channel dominates at 155, 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, Rouge translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 68M 33Y 39K. With a moderate key (39%), 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. No brands in the brandkit.pro library currently specify this exact hex as a named brand color.
