What is Saffron CMYK Color?
Saffron CMYK is (0, 20, 100, 0), which means there is 20 of magenta, 100 of yellow and 0 of both cyan and black. The closest hex code of the color is #FFCB05 with RGB equivalent values (255, 203, 5). The CMYK system is the backbone of the color printing technology found in both large industrial and small desktop printers. Colors are created using only four inks - cyan (C), magenta (M), yellow (Y) and black (K). Please understand that the reproducibility of saffron CMYK depends on the quality of the paper, the printer and the inks in the machine.
Note: The hex code for saffron CMYK mentioned on this page is only an approximation; it has been calculated from the CMYK values. Hexadecimal and RGB color values are for screen and digital media while the CMYK model is used for printing and, therefore, the conversion of one to another is not perfect. Also, the way saffron looks on the screen (via the hex code) would be very different from how it appears printed on paper (via its CMYK values).

A split-complementary color palette consists of the main color along with those on either side (30°) of the complementary color. Based on our research, usage of split-complementary palettes is on the rise online, especially in graphics and web sites designs. It may be because it is not as contrasting as the complementary color palette and, hence, results in a combination which is pleasant to the eyes.
Triadic Palette
Saffron CMYK triadic color palette has three colors each of which is separated by 120° in the RGB wheel. Thus, #05FFCB (Sea Green (Crayola)) and #CB05FF (Vivid Orchid) along with #FFCB05 create a stunning and beautiful triadic palette with the maximum variation in hue and, therefore, offering the best possible contrast when taken together.

A tetradic color palette is complex and, in most cases, should not be used off-the-shelf. We suggest tweaking the colors slightly to achieve desired results.
