Orange carries the hex code #FFA500, which resolves to rgb(255, 165, 0) and hsl(39, 100%, 50%), sitting between red and yellow on the spectrum. It’s a secondary color built from the two warmest primaries, and it occupies the wavelength band from roughly 585 to 620...
Light gray carries the hex code #D3D3D3, which resolves to rgb(211, 211, 211) and hsl(0, 0%, 83%), with all three channels set to the same value. Equal channels are what make it achromatic: no hue, no saturation, just a lightness reading near the top of the scale. That high...
Black carries the hex code #000000, which resolves to rgb(0, 0, 0) and hsl(0, 0%, 0%), with every channel switched off. It’s an achromatic color, meaning it holds no hue and no saturation at all, which is why the standard color-wheel rules stop applying the moment you try...
Red carries the hex code #FF0000, which resolves to rgb(255, 0, 0) and hsl(0, 100%, 50%): the red channel at maximum with green and blue at zero. That purity makes it the loudest color available in sRGB and the hardest one to place responsibly in an interface. Full-strength red...
Gray’s HEX code is #808080. All three RGB channels sit at exactly 128 — half strength, zero hue, 50% lightness — making gray the only color in this series with no color in it at all. That achromatic status is precisely why gray does more work in interfaces than any...
Cream’s HEX code is #FFFDD0. Red and green run at or near maximum while blue drops to 208 — hue 57, full saturation, 91% lightness — which makes cream exactly what color theory says it is: the pastel of yellow, the way pink is the pastel of red. That whisper of warmth...
Dark blue’s HEX code is #00008B. Only the blue channel is active, at 139 of 255 — hue 240, full saturation, 27% lightness — placing it a precise step above navy on the same pure-blue axis. It’s the color of authority with a pulse: deep enough for institutional...
White’s HEX code is #FFFFFF. All three RGB channels run at their maximum of 255 — full red, full green, full blue — producing the brightest value a screen can emit. White is achromatic: zero hue, zero saturation, pure lightness, and it holds a distinction no other...
Brown’s HEX code is #964B00. Under the hood it’s hsl(30, 100%, 29%) — which reveals the secret most designers never learn: brown is simply dark orange. Full saturation at hue 30, compressed to 29% lightness, produces the earthy warmth that coffee brands, craft...
Yellow’s HEX code is #FFFF00. Red and green both run at maximum while blue sits at zero — hue 60, full saturation, 50% lightness — making it the brightest-feeling color a screen can produce. It also holds two records in this series at once: the best contrast ratio...
