About this color

Ghost sits at 293° on the color wheel with 8% saturation and 80% lightness, placing it in the violet-magenta segment of the spectrum. At near-zero saturation, it reads as a pure gray, with hue playing almost no role in its character.

In digital environments, Ghost is rendered as rgb(207, 200, 208), where the blue channel is highest at 208, 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 0C 4M 0Y 18K. The low-to-moderate black value (18%) means the color's character in print comes primarily from its magenta ink content (4%), with black serving as a supporting shadow tone.
