About this color

In digital environments, Tasman is rendered as rgb(204, 211, 197), where the green channel leads at 211, with red and blue channels close behind. 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, Tasman translates to a CMYK breakdown of 3C 0M 7Y 17K. The low-to-moderate black value (17%) means the color's character in print comes primarily from its yellow ink content (7%), with black serving as a supporting shadow tone.
