How to use #671925

Derived from its contrast, chroma and lightness — not from taste.

Works well for
  • Body text and links on white
  • Primary buttons and calls to action
  • Focus rings, active and selected states
  • Headers, footers and dark-mode surfaces
  • Brand accents, badges and data highlights
Use with care
  • Text on black or near-black surfaces
  • Full-page backgrounds — tiring over long sessions
  • Black text placed on it
  • Status meaning — pair it with an icon or label, never colour alone
  • Pairing with a same-lightness hue — edges vibrate
Minimum size as text on white

Safe as a fill behind white type
Yes
Safe as a 1px border on white

Meaning and mood

What a colour in this family tends to signal, and how this particular chroma and lightness change the reading.

urgentappetisingboldphysical

Red arrives before the rest of the page does. It raises attention and appetite, which is why it runs food, sport and clearance pricing.

This is a confident chroma: strong enough to lead a brand, restrained enough to live in an interface all day. The low lightness adds weight and formality.

Worth knowing

It is also the universal error colour. Use it as a brand accent and users may read a warning that is not there.

  • EnergyMedium-high

What each alpha value actually composites to. The top row is #671925 over white; the bottom row is the same alpha over a checkerboard, so you can see what survives on a photo or a video.

Bottom row of hexes is the flattened result over white — use those when a design tool refuses transparency, or when you need a solid fallback.

#671925, answered

#671925 is a dark vivid red, closest to Maroon (ΔE2000 12.3). It sits at 351° on the hue wheel with 61% saturation and 25% lightness, which reads as warm.

What is the RGB value of #671925?

rgb(103, 25, 37) — 103 red, 25 green and 37 blue out of 255, or 40.4% / 9.8% / 14.5% by channel.

What is #671925 in HSL and HSV?

hsl(351, 61%, 25%) and hsv(351, 76%, 40%). HSL is what CSS takes; HSV is what your design tool's picker shows, which is why the saturation numbers rarely match.

Is #671925 a light or a dark color?

It is a dark color. Relative luminance is 0.0371 and perceived brightness is 24%, so white text on it reaches 12.05:1.

Should I use black or white text on #671925?

White. It scores 12.05:1 against #671925, versus 1.74:1 for black — AAA at any size.

#671925 on white scores 12.05:1, which clears AAA at every size.

What is the complementary color of #671925?

#19675B sits directly opposite on the wheel. Softer options are the split-complements #196734 and #194C67, which give the same contrast with far less vibration.

What colors go well with #671925?

For interface work: #FAF4F5 as the surface, #EDC0C7 for borders, #9B4B57 for secondary text, #166A48 as an accent and #671925 for hover and pressed states. For a palette, the analogous pair #67194C and #673419 stays calm, while #19675B is the loudest partner.

What is #671925 in CMYK for printing?

cmyk(0%, 76%, 64%, 60%). This is a screen-to-ink approximation — ask your printer for a proof before committing to a run.

Warm — it scores 22 on a scale where 0 is the warmest orange and 100 the coolest azure. Nudged warmer it becomes #672A19; nudged cooler, #681842.

Which Tailwind color is closest to #671925?

The stone family — its 500 step is #78716c, ΔE2000 29.9 away. That is a visible difference, so define #671925 as a custom token rather than reaching for the built-in.

How do I use #671925 in Tailwind CSS?

Inline it as an arbitrary value with bg-[#671925] or text-[#671925], or register the whole ramp under theme.extend.colors.brand so you get bg-brand-500 and friends. The generated 50–950 scale on this page is ready to paste into your config.

What is #671925 with 50% opacity?
