About this color
Pink sits at 350° on the color wheel with 57% saturation and 80% lightness, placing it in the magenta-red segment of the spectrum. The moderate 57% saturation gives it enough color presence to register clearly without competing for dominance in a composition. The elevated lightness keeps it airy and open, well-suited to large surface areas without visual weight.
In digital environments, Pink is rendered as rgb(233, 175, 185), where the red channel dominates at 233, giving the color a clear red cast. This warm mid-tone carries enough energy to serve as an accent without the intensity of a highly saturated warm color.
For print, Pink translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 25M 21Y 9K. The low-to-moderate black value (9%) means the color's character in print comes primarily from its magenta ink content (25%), with black serving as a supporting shadow tone. No brands in the brandkit.pro library currently specify this exact hex as a named brand color.
