About this color

Harp sits at 148° on the color wheel with 25% saturation and 90% lightness, placing it in the green segment of the spectrum. Its restrained 25% 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, Harp is rendered as rgb(223, 236, 229), where the green channel leads at 236, 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, Harp translates to a CMYK breakdown of 6C 0M 3Y 7K. The low-to-moderate black value (7%) means the color's character in print comes primarily from its cyan ink content (6%), with black serving as a supporting shadow tone.
