About this color

Lime sits at 77° on the color wheel with 98% saturation and 50% lightness, placing it in the yellow segment of the spectrum. With saturation at 98%, this is a high-chroma color: the kind that anchors palettes and demands considered placement. 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, Lime is rendered as rgb(182, 252, 3), where the green channel leads at 252, producing a distinctly green-dominant tone. The mid-range lightness and strong saturation make this versatile for both foreground and background roles, depending on what it is paired against.

For print, Lime translates to a CMYK breakdown of 28C 0M 99Y 1K. With almost no black ink (1%), this color is built almost entirely from process inks: 28% cyan, 99% yellow. This profile tends toward vibrancy in print, though ink density limits on press may affect saturation on coated versus uncoated stock.
