About this color

Ghost sits at 246° on the color wheel with 10% saturation and 80% lightness, placing it in the blue segment of the spectrum. Its restrained 10% 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, Ghost is rendered as rgb(200, 199, 209), where the blue channel is highest at 209, though it sits close to the other channels. 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, Ghost translates to a CMYK breakdown of 4C 5M 0Y 18K. The low-to-moderate black value (18%) means the color's character in print comes primarily from its magenta ink content (5%), with black serving as a supporting shadow tone.
