About this color

Surf sits at 120° on the color wheel with 27% saturation and 80% lightness, placing it in the green segment of the spectrum. Its restrained 27% saturation keeps the hue subtle — present but not assertive, making it easy to layer over or under more expressive colors. The elevated lightness keeps it airy and open, well-suited to large surface areas without visual weight.

In digital environments, Surf is rendered as rgb(190, 218, 190), where the green channel leads at 218, pulling the color toward the green-yellow axis. Muted saturation at high lightness is a classic formula for soft background fills, placeholder states, and secondary surface colors in light-mode interfaces.

For print, Surf translates to a CMYK breakdown of 13C 0M 13Y 15K. The low-to-moderate black value (15%) means the color's character in print comes primarily from its yellow ink content (13%), with black serving as a supporting shadow tone. No brands in the brandkit.pro library currently specify this exact hex as a named brand color.
