About this color

Santa Fe sits at 16° on the color wheel with 30% saturation and 50% lightness, placing it in the red segment of the spectrum. The moderate 30% 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, Santa Fe is rendered as rgb(166, 110, 89), where the red channel dominates at 166, 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, Santa Fe translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 34M 46Y 35K. With a moderate key (35%), 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.
