About this color

In digital environments, Cape Palliser is rendered as rgb(175, 120, 80), where the red channel dominates at 175, 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 31M 54Y 31K. With a moderate key (31%), 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.
