About this color

Turmeric sits at 55° on the color wheel with 51% saturation and 50% lightness, placing it in the orange-yellow segment of the spectrum. The moderate 51% 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, Turmeric is rendered as rgb(193, 182, 62), where the red channel dominates at 193, though the other channels keep the hue balanced. This warm mid-tone carries enough energy to serve as an accent without the intensity of a highly saturated warm color.

For print, Turmeric translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 6M 68Y 24K. The low-to-moderate black value (24%) means the color's character in print comes primarily from its yellow ink content (68%), with black serving as a supporting shadow tone.
