About this color

Marigold sits at 41° on the color wheel with 53% saturation and 50% lightness, placing it in the orange-red segment of the spectrum.

In digital environments, Marigold is rendered as rgb(195, 152, 60), where the red channel dominates at 195, 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, Marigold translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 22M 69Y 24K. The low-to-moderate black value (24%) means the color's character in print comes primarily from its yellow ink content (69%), with black serving as a supporting shadow tone.
