About this color

Au Chico sits at 7° on the color wheel with 29% saturation and 50% lightness, placing it in the red segment of the spectrum. Its restrained 29% saturation keeps the hue subtle — present but not assertive, making it easy to layer over or under more expressive colors. Its mid-range lightness positions it as a mid-tone: neither a background color nor a deep accent, but something in between.

In digital environments, Au Chico is rendered as rgb(164, 99, 91), where the red channel dominates at 164, creating a strongly red-skewed appearance. This muted, medium-toned character adapts well to supporting roles: borders, disabled states, secondary text, and structural UI elements.

For print, Au Chico translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 40M 45Y 36K. With a moderate key (36%), this color uses black to deepen the chromatic channels rather than replace them, a profile that typically holds up well in both offset and digital print.
