About this color

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, Cloud is rendered as rgb(209, 201, 199), where the red channel dominates at 209, though the other channels keep the hue balanced. 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, Cloud translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 4M 5Y 18K. The low-to-moderate black value (18%) means the color's character in print comes primarily from its yellow ink content (5%), with black serving as a supporting shadow tone.
