  • Borders, dividers and quiet backgrounds
  • Long-form reading surfaces
  • Brand accents, badges and data highlights
Use with care
  • Small text on white — under 4.5:1
  • Pairing with a same-lightness hue — edges vibrate
Minimum size as text on white
24px / 18.66px bold
Safe as a fill behind white type
No — use #483842

Meaning and mood

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

expressiveyouthfulwarmconfident

Pink is the fastest way to signal that a product is not another enterprise dashboard. It carries beauty, fashion and culture brands.

With almost no chroma left, the family association is barely present; treat it as a neutral that happens to lean this way. The mid lightness keeps it versatile in both themes.

Worth knowing

Strong gendered associations in some markets — test it with the audience you actually have.

What each alpha value actually composites to. The top row is #927386 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.

#927386, answered

What color is #927386?

#927386 is a balanced muted magenta / pink, closest to Rosy Brown (ΔE2000 13.6). It sits at 323° on the hue wheel with 12% saturation and 51% lightness, which reads as neutral.

What is the RGB value of #927386?

rgb(146, 115, 134) — 146 red, 115 green and 134 blue out of 255, or 57.3% / 45.1% / 52.5% by channel.

What is #927386 in HSL and HSV?

hsl(323, 12%, 51%) and hsv(323, 21%, 57%). HSL is what CSS takes; HSV is what your design tool's picker shows, which is why the saturation numbers rarely match.

Is #927386 a light or a dark color?

It is a mid-tone. Relative luminance is 0.2009 and perceived brightness is 50%, so black text on it reaches 5.02:1.

Should I use black or white text on #927386?

Black. It scores 5.02:1 against #927386, versus 4.18:1 for white — AA at any size.

Is #927386 accessible on a white background?

#927386 on white scores 4.18:1, which only clears AA for large text — 18.66px bold or 24px regular and up. Darken it to #8A6C7E to reach 4.5:1, or #68515F for 7:1.

What is the complementary color of #927386?

#73927F sits directly opposite on the wheel. Softer options are the split-complements #779273 and #73928E, which give the same contrast with far less vibration.

What colors go well with #927386?

For interface work: #F8F6F8 as the surface, #DBD1D7 for borders, #816576 for secondary text, #6E9774 as an accent and #483842 for hover and pressed states. For a palette, the analogous pair #8E7392 and #927377 stays calm, while #73927F is the loudest partner.

What is #927386 in CMYK for printing?

cmyk(0%, 21%, 8%, 43%). This is a screen-to-ink approximation — ask your printer for a proof before committing to a run.

Is #927386 warm or cool?

Neutral — it scores 45 on a scale where 0 is the warmest orange and 100 the coolest azure. Nudged warmer it becomes #92737B; nudged cooler, #947194.

Which Tailwind color is closest to #927386?

The zinc family — its 500 step is #71717a, ΔE2000 13.6 away. That is a visible difference, so define #927386 as a custom token rather than reaching for the built-in.

How do I use #927386 in Tailwind CSS?

Inline it as an arbitrary value with bg-[#927386] or text-[#927386], 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.
